29.13 Menu Options

Always on Top: When active (checked) the TotalMix window will always be on top of the Win-
dows desktop.
Note: This function may result in problems with windows containing help text, as the TotalMix
window will even be on top of those windows, so the help text isn't readable.
Deactivate Screensaver: When active (checked) any activated Windows screensaver will be
disabled temporarily.
Ignore Position: When active, the windows size and position stored in a file or preset will not
be used. The routing will be activated, but the window will not change.
Ignore I/O Labels: When active the channel names saved in a preset or file will not be loaded,
instead the current ones will be retained.
ASIO Direct Monitoring (Windows only): When de-activated any ADM commands will be
ignored by TotalMix. In other words, ASIO Direct Monitoring is globally de-activated.
Link Faders: Selecting this option all faders will be treated as stereo pairs and moved pair-
wise. Hotkey L.

and decoding. See chapter 31.7.

Deactivate MIDI in Background: Disables the MIDI control as soon as another application is in
the focus, or in case TotalMix has been minimized.

password is stored unencrypted in the registry (Windows: Software, RME, firefacemix, Pass-
word).
