2.5 Sliders and Knobs

Some parameter values can be changed via sliders and knobs.
Sliders (or faders) are used for example to adjust the effect's input levels in the Effect Window,
or to define the mutation settings in the Browser Window's Mutator. To adjust the value of a
slider, click on it and drag your mouse horizontally while holding the mouse button depressed.

Knobs can be found for example in the Effect Window, where you adjust the signal propor-
tions using the Wet Level an Dry Level controls.

The global Master Envelope also uses knobs to define its four steps Attack, Decay, Sustain
and Release. To adjust the value of a knob, you have following possibilities:
•
Click on the knob (or on the value display if available) and drag the mouse up/down to
increase/decrease the value, respectively. If your mouse has a scroll wheel, you can place
the cursor on the knob and change its value by turning the scroll wheel. Move the wheel
forward to increase the value and backwards to decrease it.
•
Double-click on the value display (if available) and enter a new value via your computer
keyboard, then press [Enter] to confirm or [Esc] to let the previous value unchanged.
