less sensitive in Sound-Active mode. Turning the knob counterclockwise decreases
the sensitivity; turning the knob clockwise increases the sensitivity.

Master/Slave Mode (Master Sound):

This mode will allow you to link up to 32 products together without a controller.

on the product. The product must be the first product in line. Then simply chain the
products together using DMX cable.
