Cue Bar Control

The “cue bar” control provides a visual
reference to the current playing song
length, as indicated by the position of
the cue position knob.

Changing current song position

The “cue bar” can also be used to rapidly change locations in the current playing song. Simply drag the cue
position knob to a new location on the timeline and playback will change to the new location.

Now Playing Panel

The “Now Playing” panel controls the songs and song
order used for playback. Any music that you want
to play MUST be queued up in this area for playback.
The “Now Playing” list can be made up of any
combination of “tracks” and “playlists”. This area also
provides important information about your “Now
Playing
” playlist, such as total number of tracks, total
duration, as well as number of tracks and time
remaining in the entire list.

Current Track – The purple highlighted track is the
currently playing track and will only be highlighted
when you are in Play or Pause mode. Qsonix will
keep this item in the center of the list whenever
possible. Note that previously played items will appear dimmed in a light grey color.

Insertion Point – When using the drag-and-drop features to add items to your playlist, a yellow horizontal line will
indicate where you are inserting the new items into the “Now Playing” list.

Output Selector Buttons – Qsonix models that support and are configured with multiple outputs will present the “Zone
Selector” up & down arrows that will toggle through all available zones/outputs. These outputs can be configured,
named and color coded in the Tools/System/Output preferences area. Multiple output playback for Q1XX series systems
is only possible when configured for analog audio output (see preferences / advanced audio). The user-interface will
change colors to indicate which zone you are controlling. Each zone has it’s one playback controls and individual playlist
that can be independently controlled.

Remaining / Total Indicator – Displays the number of remaining tracks and remaining total time left to play in your
playlist. This display updates by counting down as you move through your playlist. This display rotates to indicate the
total number of tracks and total playtime for the entire playlist. It is updated when you add or delete songs and
playlists.
