3.3. The Lower Toolbar
The Lower Toolbar runs along the bottom of the Farfisa V user interface and provides quick
access to several important parameters and useful bits of information.
•
At the far left corner of the lower toolbar (not shown above) you will see a
readout that displays the name of the parameter as you adjust or hover over a
control. The current value of the control is listed in a tool tip that appears next to
the control.
•
Undo/Redo: Keeps track of your edits and changes.
CPU Meter and Panic Button: Displays the current CPU usage of the instrument.
•
Clicking on the CPU (percentage between the Redo arrow and the macro knobs)
will change the display to "PANIC" and send a MIDI All Notes Off message,
silencing all notes and resetting MIDI signals in the event of stuck notes or other
issues.
If you're running many different instrument plug-ins at the same time, or doing complicated tasks
with other programs, the central processing unit (CPU) of your computer may reach the limits of its
power. However, the Farfisa V by itself doesn't use much processing power.
Macro Knobs: These four knobs control multiple parameters with a single turn.
•
Assigning parameters to them is covered in the
Panel section below.
Maximize View: If you use the Resize Window control to magnify the Farfisa V's
•
display and some of its parameters are pushed outside the viewable range of
your display, you might see a couple of orange arrows show up on the far right
corner of the lower toolbar. This is the Maximize View button. Click this button
to make the most of the available screen space by re-centering the Farfisa V
window and expanding it downward toward the bottom of your display.
