The Master Volume Knob controls the volume of every audio output on
the ESI including the submix and headphone outputs. The master
volume knob is a digital control. For maximum dynamic range it should
be kept near the maximum position.
Using the Data Entry Control is the most common way to change
parameter values on the ESI. Moving the control changes either the data
over the flashing cursor or scrolls through options in the display.
In all ESI menus where the data entry control selects options, the
Increment (INC/YES) and Decrement (DEC/NO) Buttons duplicate the
function of the Data Entry Control. The increment/decrement buttons
can be used when a finer degree of control is required. They can also be
used for selecting Yes or No.
The Ten Key Pad is used to enter data in precise amounts. For instance,
if you wanted to jump to preset 10, enter 010 on the ten key pad and
the new preset number will be instantly selected, eliminating the process
of finding the number with the data entry control and then pressing
Enter.
The Escape button lets you back out of a module by one menu each time
the button is pressed. It can also be used anytime you do not want to
execute a particular function (bail out). In the Sample Management
module, pressing the Escape button terminates the sampling process.
A flashing Enter LED means that the ESI wants you to do something.
Data may need to be entered, or the ESI may be waiting for you to press
the Enter button to activate a particular operation. If the Enter LED is lit
steadily, pressing Enter is optional. Doing so will exit you from the
function and return you to the module identifier. You also have the
option of going directly to another function within the module.
