User Interface & Shortcuts
Wherever possible, the OASYS PCI supports standard user interface concepts.
There are buttons to push, sliders to drag, numerical fields to type in, and so on.
There are a few items and concepts which bear mentioning, as discussed below.
Volume faders
Double-clicking on a volume fader in a Mixer Channel, Send Bus, or Output Bus
will set the fader to 0dB (unity gain), a value of 111.
Knobs
Knobs are used in the Mixer windows and the Control Panel. You can move knobs
by dragging the mouse either up and down, or left and right, as if you were moving
a slider. They are not designed to be "turned" in a circular motion; doing so will
produce undesired results!
For fine control, you can increment and decrement the knob's value using the up
and down arrows on the keyboard. You can also type directly into the value box.
Double-clicking on a knob will set it to its 12 o'clock position. For example, double-
clicking on the Mixer's Pan knobs sets them to 64 (center).
Send knobs are the one exception to this. As with volume faders, double-clicking a
send knob sets it to 0dB (unity gain), a value of 111.
Value boxes
A value box displays a numerical value, such as a volume level or a filter cutoff.
You can edit value boxes in several different ways, as described below:
Typing. You can type directly into the selected value box. Typed edits take effect
when you press return, tab, or enter; when you click on another value box, or on
another window; or when you move another knob, slider, button, or menu.
Arrow keys. You can increment and decrement the selected value box by pressing
the up and down arrow keys on the computer keyboard.
Mouse dragging. You can edit a value box by simply clicking in the box and then
dragging the mouse up or down, as you were moving a slider. Dragging up
increments the value, and dragging down decrements the value.
Drag-and-drop
To load Programs, Patches, or Effects, just drag them from the Catalog window into
the desired slot.
Alternately, you can select a slot, and then double-click on the name of the
Program, Patch, or Effect in the Catalog window.
