3.4.8.2
Single Tap Source Select
1. For this parameter, Checked is the default. In this state, pressing an INPUT source button will instantly turn
that source OFF to ON or ON to OFF, the same function as the ON/OFF button below the fader. This allows for
quicker one-touch selection and muting of INPUT sources. However, the selected source will be present instantly
with full volume on first press or a previously set volume level.
2. When Unchecked, pressing an input source will only bring that source into focus. One must then press the
ON/OFF button to make the source active. The advantage is that you would have the opportunity to adjust the
level of that source before it is sent to the output. This mode would be typical for live use, where making an input
source live at full volume could have ear-shattering consequences.
For the remainder of this section, when mention is made of enabling sources whether this is accomplished by the
Single Tap method (Single Tap Source Select = ON) or Two Tap (Single Tap Source Select = OFF) will be left up to
the reader.
3.4.8.3
Selecting Monitor Sources
In this state, audio streaming from USB Play 1&2 will be merged with audio streaming from the Digital Input. One
must be cautious of the levels of each source in this case, as the combined signal strength could cause clipping to the
output. If this occurs, it can be remedied by attenuating the faders for the input sources (USB Play 1&2 and Digital In),
or by attenuating the associated output.
One of the advantages of the Touch Screen GUI, is that
we can offer user-preferred options for the way onscreen
buttons behave, a big advantage over standard, fixed-
function hardware buttons. This is one such option.
Returning to the default Output Mix Routing page, let's say that
we wanted to add Digital In as a source to route to the Line Out.
We could simply enable the Digital In with either a single-tap or
double-tap and the page would now look like this.
Now if we wish to listen to the Digital In signal through Line
Out but NOT the USB Play 1&2 signal, we could turn the USB
Play 1&2 button off, again via the one-tap, or two-tap method.
Using either method, the result would be Digital In as the only
source feeding Line Out. It would look like this.
