Scrolling
When the mixer window is sized to display fewer channels
than are currently active, the window can be scrolled hori-
zontally to bring the hidden channels into view. Similarly, if
the window is vertically reduced by resizing, the window can
be vertically scrolled to view the hidden portion.

To scroll the mixer window, use any of these methods:

• Drag the scroll bar(s) with the mouse
• Click the scroll arrows at either end of the scroll bar(s)
• Hover over the scroll bar(s) and use the scroll function of the input device

(scroll wheel, trackpad, etc).

Adjusting Console Controls

2-state buttons, switches, and checkboxes: Click to toggle the state.
Knobs: Click-drag to adjust, or use the shortcuts below. Console’s rotary controls (and UAD
plug-in knobs) can respond to Linear, Circular, or Relative Circular adjustments modes. This
preference is set in the UAD Meter & Control Panel application; full details are in the UAD Sys-
tem Manual.
Faders: Click-drag to adjust, or use the

Console Shortcuts

.

UAD Powered Plug-Ins: Most UAD plug-in controls use the same methods as above. However,
some plug-in parameters may have custom controls that are unfamiliar or not obvious. All cus-
tom controls are detailed for individual plug-ins in the

UAD Plug-Ins Manual

.

Console Shortcuts

Several shortcuts are available to simplify Console control adjustments:
Scroll Wheel: Continuous controls (knobs and faders) can be adjusted by using the mouse scroll
wheel (if available). Hover the cursor over the control and adjust the scroll wheel to modify the
parameter value.
Adjust All: If the Option key is held down while modifying any control, the same control on all
inputs (or aux returns) will be simultaneously adjusted. The relative difference is maintained
between the same controls until any control reaches its minimum or maximum value.
Return To Default: If the Command (“

⌘” or “apple” key – Mac) or Control “ctrl” key

(Windows) is held when a control is clicked, the control will return to its default value.
Command(Ctrl)+Option+Click will return all controls of the same type to their default value.
Mute/Solo All Toggle: Option-click a Mute or Solo button to toggle the state on all channels.
Shift+Click with Arrow Keys: After clicking a control, values can be adjusted using the arrow
keys when the shift key is held down.
Button Toggle via Return: When a button has focus, it can be toggled with the return or enter
keys on the computer keyboard. A button has focus after it is clicked.
Drop Menus: Menus continue to display after a single click. The mouse button does not need to
be held down to view the menu.
