Responding to Questions
When HDMIX needs to send you a messsage or
ask you a question it will do so with a Dialog. If a
response is required the options will appear in the
Menu Bar. Select the desired option to answer the
question and the Dialog will close, returning you to
whatever you were doing.
In this example, HDMIX is responding to the DJ's
command to clear all tracks from the Crate by
checking if he is really sure.
Changing Settings
A Dialog can be used to change settings, in which
case each setting is shown with the active setting
highlighted. Its value can be changed simply by
rotating the Push Select knob - some settings have
a textual description for each value, others have a
sliding bar. To change a different setting, press the
Push Select knob. Keep pressing to cycle through
all the settings in turn. Changes to Pitch settings
will take effect when the Mode window is closed.
All other setting changes take effect immediately.
In this example the DJ is changing the mode
settings for Deck A.
Entering Text
A text entry box is used whenever you need to get some text into HDMIX, for example while searching
for a track or naming a playlist. Unlike other kinds of settings the text entry box has its own menu
which works along with the Push Select knob to make it easy to enter text with or without a keyboard.
A highlighted box on the right shows the character which you are about to enter and the menu can be
used to delete the previous character (Delete), insert a space (Space), switch between lower and upper
case (Caps), and finsh entering text (Done).
If you have a USB keyboard connected to your HDMIX you can simply type text straight into a text
entry box. This is the fastest way to enter text. Use the left and right cursor keys to move around
within the text you have entered. The Enter and Tab keys complete text entry the same as the Done
menu option.
If you do not have a keyboard connected you can enter characters using the Push Select knob. Rotate
left or right to move through each letter, numeral and symbol. To fix the desired character press the
Push Select knob. When you're finished, select Done.
