Navigation Bar: Introduction
This is it! Time to finish off the
education with the Navigation Bar.
Like the Master Fader, the
Navigation Bar is also always
displayed no matter what view is
open. It lies horizontally across the
top of each view. Images of the
Navigation Bar are displayed above.
You might inquire, “Why are there
two images of the Navigation Bar?”
I would reply with “Good question!”
As discussed previously, you will
be in one of two possible views:
Mixer View or Channel View. Each
view displays a different Navigation
Bar. Figure P will be prominently
displayed when a Channel View is
open and Figure Q is available when
in the Mixer View.
We will quickly cover each feature
of the Navigation Bar starting on the
far left with Mixer and working our
way right to Snapshots.
Navigation Bar: Mixer
As mentioned in the Navigation
Bar introduction, the Mixer button
will only be displayed when working
within a Channel View [EQ, Gate
and Compression, FX, Graphic EQ,
Compressor / Limiter]. Simply tap
the Mixer button to return to the
Mixer View.
If a Mixer button is not displayed
(as seen in Figure Q), then you are
already in the Mixer View.
Current Parameter Display
The Current Parameter Display
displays the channel and the value
of the current parameter being
adjusted. However, this is not just
a point of reference. Tap the
Current Parameter Display and a
keyboard appears. Here you may
enter the exact value you would
like for that parameter.
Navigation Bar: Tools
Tools is where the Master
Fader app settings reside, as well
as configuration options for the
DL1608. Tap the Tools button to
reveal these controls.
Additionally, Tools is where you
select which DL1608 device to
control in a venue utilizing more
than one DL1608.
Notice that Figure Q has
“OFFLINE” underneath the
Tools image and Figure P has
“CONNECTED”. iPads not
connected to the mixer (either
wired or wirelessly) will display
“OFFLINE” or “DISCONNECTED”.
