You can set whether Touch Instrument control knobs respond to linear gestures, circular gestures, or both. By default, the orientation is set to Automatic, which lets control knobs respond to both linear and circular gestures.
Set the orientation for control knobs
Close GarageBand.
Open the Settings app, choose GarageBand, then tap Knob Gestures.
Choose the orientation you want to use (Automatic, Linear, or Circular).
