Changes the Output Mixer displayed
The FireControl has five output mixes – one for each of the
FireStudio Tube's five outputs.
Enables or disables the associated Output's mixer
When set to 'PlayBack', the output pair's DAW playback
outputs are routed directly to it.
Displays the output level of each stereo pair
These meter post fader levels, which means they represent
the actual audio output levels of your FireStudio Tube.
Changes FireStudio Tube Sample Rate
A Higher Sample Rate increases frequency range and sonic
accuracy but also increases recorded audio file sizes.
Changes the FireStudio Tube Buffer Size
This selector is not present in Mac OS X.
A large buffer increases latency but is more stable.
Resizes the width of the FireControl
Click and drag the bottom right corner of the
FireControl to resize its width on your screen and
increase / decrease the number of channels visible
in the Mixer.
