some of them also display the current parameter setting. The majority of the buttons in
each menu provide one or more of these functions:

on the button.
• You can change parameter values by clicking on the button, holding the mouse
depressed, and then moving the cursor sideways.
• You can change parameter values by means of the scroll wheel on the mouse or
trackball.
• You can enter parameter values from the keyboard (if you have one).
