Slot Controls
Depending on the selected slot display size you get access to additional slot controls.
Level
The level fader controls the output level of a program. The parameter has an influence
on all outputs used by layers and zones inside the program.
Pan
Pan controls the stereo position of a program. The parameter has an influence on all
outputs used by layers and zones inside the program.
The Pan control is disabled if the slot bus has a surround configuration.
Solo
Activate the Solo button of a slot in order to hear only the corresponding program.
Several slots can be soloed at the same time.
Mute
Activate the Mute button to turn off playback of the program.
MIDI Port and Channel
Here you can specify on which MIDI port and channel the slot receives MIDI
messages.
MIDI Activity Indicator
A green bar next to the slot number and symbol indicates incoming MIDI data.
Polyphony
Here, you can specify how many notes can be triggered simultaneously.
The number of resulting voices can be much higher if one note triggers several zones
at the same time.
Output
The output selector lets you define to which output bus the slot sends its signal.
This setting does not affect any output routing that has been set up for individual
layers or zones inside the program.
Level Meter
The level meter indicates the signal level of the slot output bus.
Layers and zones inside the program that are routed to individual outputs do not show
any meter activity.
