Explanation of basic operation

Changing the screen size

● Focus

The currently selected item is enclosed by a flashing border (this area is

subsequently referred to as the “focus”). Use the <Tab> key to move the focus

(<Shift>+<Tab> will move in the opposite direction). Left-clicking a button

has the same effect as pressing the <Enter> key while focus is on that item.

● Faders/knobs

Drag upward to increase the value, or downward to decrease the

value. If focus is on the fader or knob, you can also use the mouse

wheel or the <><> keys.

By holding down the <Ctrl> key and clicking the knob or fader,

you can set it to the nominal value. You can right-click a fader and

select an input value.

● Numeric box

Drag upward to increase the value, or downward to decrease the value.

If focus is on the fader or knob, you can also use the mouse wheel or the

<><> keys.

You can double-click to enter edit mode and specify a numeric value. In edit mode, you

can use <Ctrl>+C (hold down the <Ctrl> key and press the <C> key) to Copy,

<Ctrl>+<V> to Paste, and press the <Enter> key to confirm the value.

By dragging the right edge of the screen you can change the horizontal width of the

screen. If you’re using a large monitor, this is a convenient way to view numerous

channel strips simultaneously.

By dragging the scroll bar in the center of the screen to the left or

right, you can change the proportion of input channel faders and

output channel faders that are shown.

If stereo input channels and direct input channels are hidden,

drag the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen to left or right to

make these channels visible.
