Rayblaster Interface Controls - Tone2 Rayblaster Reference Manual

3. Rayblaster Interface controls

Buttons
There are two types of toggle buttons in Rayblaster,
one where clicking a button cycles between all options
available, a good example of this are the LFO waveform
selectors where clicking on the Wave button will cycle
through the available LFO wavetypes.
The other type is the toggle on/off buttons, clicking on
these will either enable or disable the feature.
Examples of these are the BPM, Drift and Sync buttons
in the Oscillator section.
Rotary Knobs
The rotary knob control increments a parameter value
linearly from a minimum threshold value to a maximum
threshold value.
To increase a knob's setting value, turn it clockwise:
click-and-hold the knob with your mouse and then move
it up and/or to the right. To decrease, move down and/or
to the left, or anti-clockwise.
If you press the Shift key on your keyboard and then click-and-hold the left mouse button
on a knob, you will have fine control.
There are two type of value ranges for the rotary knobs, depending on the parameter the
knob is controlling. There is the unipolar knob – that goes from zero to a positive value or
the bipolar knob – that goes from a minus value to through zero and then to a positive
amount.
Bipolar values are useful for setting modulation amounts (which can be positive or
negative) or pan where zero is the center.
