-To rename a strip/bus channel navigate to the relevant tab, then press `F2`. This will open a popup window where you can set the channel index (with a spinbox) and set the new label using a text input box.
+You will find in each of these tabs two nested tabs,`Buttons` and `Sliders`. For each nested tab you will find the controls appropriate for the Voicemeeter kind and channel type.
+
+All buttons may be triggered by pressing `SPACE` or `ENTER`.
+
+All sliders may be controlled in three different ways:
+
+- `Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 1 step.
+- `Shift + Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 0.1 steps.
+- `Control + Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 3 steps.
+
+To rename a strip/bus channel focus on the channel in question and press `F2`. Then enter the new channel name into the text input widget and press the `Ok` button.

 Pressing the `OK` button with an empty text input will clear the label. In this case the label will be read as a default value for that channel. For example, if the leftmost Strip label were cleared, the screen reader will now read `Hardware Input 1`.

+### `Quick access binds`
+
+There are a number of quick binds available to assist with faster navigation and general use.
+
+When focused on any one of "Physical Strip", "Virtual Strip" or "Buses" you may use `Control + Number` to skip to the corresponding channel.
+
+When focused on any single channel (Strip or Bus), the following binds exist:
+
+- `Alt + Number` will trigger the Bus output button corresponding to the number. For example `Alt + 3` will trigger the `A3` button
+- `Control + O` will trigger the Mono button
+- `Control + S` will trigger the Solo button
+- `Control + M` will trigger the Mute button
+
+You may also enter slider modes which allow for control of the channels sliders until the slider mode is exited. You may access the slider modes with the following binds:
+
+- `Control + U` will enter Audibility mode
+- `Control + G` will enter Gain mode
+- `Control + T` will enter Gate mode
+- `Control + L` will enter Limit mode
+- `Control + B` will enter Bass mode
+- `Control + I` will enter Mid mode
+- `Control + R` will enter Treble mode
+
+To exit any of the slider modes press `Escape`.
+
+Once you are in a slider mode you may now control the slider that matches the slider mode. Slider mode binds are the same as the normal slider binds with the addition of the Alt keypress. For example, where you would normally use `Right Arrow` to shift a slider rightwards by 1 step, in slider mode you would now use `Alt + Right Arrow`.
