Black Button
This button works along with the master fader (on the screen) to achieve a
blackout by pulling the screen fader to 0. Tap and hold the button briefly to get a
3 second fadeout. Tap and release quickly to get an instant blackout. Tap the
button again to return the master to its previous position. The blackout button on
the Link controller works this way also, regardless of whether the master pop-up
is visible or not.
Mic Gain
This fader controls the sensitivity of the microphone input for audio effects and
audio beat. Adjust the gain with music playing and observe the level indicator.
The indicator responds to low frequencies as this is what’s used for the beat
detector. Set the level so that any low frequencies raise the level indicator just
into the red and makes the pulse indicator on the audio button flash. The pulse
indicator is the green frame around the audio button. Note: The audio level
indicator will not respond to high frequencies such as those coming from a smart
phone speaker. For best results, try to use the gain fader in the 50-75% range.
If the master pop-up is displayed you can use wheel 4 to adjust the audio gain.
Audio Button
This button will enable the audio beat function. When there is a low frequency
pulsing beat that is picked up by the mic, this function will try to extract a tempo
from it and trigger any effects or shows that have the sync function enabled.
When the tempo is detected, the audio button will flash red on each beat as
shown in the example above and the beats per minute will be displayed just
below the audio button. The beat will stop if the audio source stops and any
effects or shows will revert to their saved tempos. You can use the audio button
on the Link controller to enable audio beat at any time.
Tap Button
The tap sync button lets you tap in a beat. The beats per minute will be displayed
above the button and the button will flash red on each beat. You only need to tap
twice to activate it. Tap once to turn it off. If any currently running show or effect
has the tap sync enabled, it will respond to the tap sync BPM. You must enable
this feature for each individual show or effect. See instructions on saving shows
and effects for more info. Use the tap button on the Link at any time to tap in a
beat.
