Chapter 2: Front Panel Controls
Touch screen
The VAX77 has a color touch screen display. Almost
every mode includes touch screen buttons that affect
the operation of the keyboard. This touch screen does
not have multi-touch capability. Consequently, screen
buttons are pressed with a single tap. Try not to drag
your finger across the screen or linger on a button after
it is pressed, as this may give unexpected results.
Hot key
There is a black key on the far right side of the keyboard
called the hot key. Its function is set on the Setup
screen. In playlist mode, it can be used to activate the
Standby preset, performing the same function as the
green button but your hands do not have to leave the
keyboard.
The hot key can also be configured to play a note, a D
above high C.
Other functions for the hot key are detailed in Chapter 3
Setup Mode.
