4.3 Interface Controls
Controls can be in one of three states:
• Not Selected where the control is not the target of any user entry
• Selected where the control is the target of mouse control entry only
• Selected and Active where the control is the target for both mouse and
keyboard entry
Toggle Buttons
Toggle buttons display the state of a control, and allow switching between two or more
states. Single-click to change the control’s state. Some toggle buttons have a text
display which updates with the current setting, and others (bypass, solo, or monitoring
toggles) illuminate when the control is active.
Some processors have link buttons between a pair of toggle buttons, allowing click-
and-drag adjustment while retaining the offset between the controls.
Value Window Buttons
Value windows display the value of a control and allow click-and-drag adjustment, or
direct control via the keyboard.
• Using the mouse, click-and-drag on the value window to adjust. Some value
windows support left/right, some up/down (as you hover over a button, arrows
will appear to let you know which direction of movement that button supports).
• Using the arrow keys, click once with mouse to select the button, and then use
up/down – left/right (depending on the direction supported by that button) to
move in the smallest incremental steps across the button’s range (holding down
the arrow keys will move faster through the range).
• Using key entry, double click on the button to open the value window, and
directly enter the value from your keyboard. If you enter an out of range number,
the button stays selected but remains at the current setting (system beeps? If
system sounds are on?)
Some processors have link buttons between a pair of value windows, allowing click-
and-drag adjustment while retaining the offset between the controls.
Multiple Selection of Controls
One of the most powerful features of the WaveSystem is the ability to select and adjust
many controls at the same time. Using the mouse, simply drag-select the desired group
of button or graphic controls by clicking and holding at a point outside the controls and
forming a rectangle to include the controls you wish to adjust. Alternatively, you can hold
