Grow & Glow, Current Parameter Display and The Swipe Zone
The following are key paradigms built into the Master Fader app to help
simplify your mixing world. These exist on all screens and are important
concepts to understand.
Grow & Glow — When making changes to the mix, certain controls "Grow &
Glow" to indicate that they are being adjusted. This builds your confidence in that
the controls you are adjusting are under your power, including faders, EQ balls,
gate and compressor balls, graphic EQ sliders and more. There are multiple
Pan Grow
examples of the "Grow & Glow" feature displayed on this page.

Band 2 Grow & Glow [EQ]
(Also of note here is the vertical line; it helps
determine the band's current frequency).
Current Parameter Display — The current parameter display is conveniently located dead-center on
the navigation bar at the top of whatever view is open. It constantly updates to display the channel and
the value of the current parameter being adjusted. However, this is not just a point of reference. Tap the
current parameter display and a keyboard appears. Here you may enter the exact value you would like
for that parameter. Sometimes multiple parameters may be changed. For example, both the gain and
frequency may be updated on each EQ band, as seen below.
