Adjusting a Knob with Fine Control

To get finer control over knob values, hold down the apple [ ] key while dragging the mouse.

Toggle Switches

In an effort to provide the feeling of real analog gear our toggle switches "switch" when clicked.
To change the "state" of a toggle switch (like the analog/digital control), simply click on the
switch it will change from where it was to the "other" setting. Click again to change it back.
Really simple!

LED Displays

LED displays on EchoBoy work in a couple of ways:

Nudge Buttons

Most text readouts also include a pair of nudge buttons next to the display. Clicking on the
upper button will increase the value by one and clicking once on lower button will decrease the
value by one. This is useful for tweaking a value by small steps.

Numerical Readouts & Entering Values from the Keyboard

For numerical readouts, (like BPM), you can enter exact values right from your computer
keyboard. Clicking on the LED display highlights the field and makes it "live". Once highlighted,
you can enter a new value via the computer keyboard. Press, "Return" to submit the value and
deselect the field. You can also click & drag the cursor to change the value. Simply click on the
value and drag the cursor up to increase the value or down to decrease the value, similar to
using a knob control. Press, "Return" to submit the new value and deselect the field.
