LEFT (Keypad) 

 
The LEFT key moves leftwards the cursor or the two active cursors (flashing). 
In the decay profile screen (

reverberation time measurement

)  it’s  used  to  move  the  time  axis 

downwards when cursors are not active. 
 
 

 

 

RIGHT (Keypad) 

 
The RIGHT key moves rightwards the cursor or the two active cursors (flashing). 
It is used in the FFT screen to move the frequency axis upward when the cursors are not active. 
It is used in the decay profile screen (

reverberation time measurement

) it is used to move the fre-

quency axis upward when the cursors are not active
