Faders

The TC Icon software has large on-screen fad-
ers. They have several features that will help you
operate your UpCon efficiently.
► There are six on-screen faders.
►
You can change the position of the faders
or hide them completely – see"UI page" on
page 85.
►
The name of the parameter that a fader is
currently assigned to is displayed above the
fader.
► When no label is shown above a fader, that
fader is currently not assigned to a parameter.
►
Fader assignments and values will always re-
flect the last Engine you have accessed.
Using Faders for fine adjustments
When a parameter is assigned to a fader, you
can choose between Normal and
ment mode.
► Normal Adjustment
In mode, the fader
range will cover the full parameter range – e.g.
-18 dB to 18 dB for the Center Trim parameter.
►
In Fine Adjustment mode, the fader range
will be smaller, allowing you to fine-tune
around the current value – e.g. in 0.1 dB steps
for a level parameter.
To switch a fader from Normal Adjustment mode
to Fine Adjustment mode or back, click the label
above that fader. Fine Adjust mode will be indi-
cated by two triangles in the label field.
