7.4 Creating a New System Setup File
A new system setup file is created by selecting the ‘File | New’ menu command. This starts the
system definition process where you create new groups and then run the AutoCal calibration for
the new groups. Finally, you can store the new system setup file on your computer hard drive with
any suitable name.
To create a new system setup file, you can alternatively save a copy of the current system setup
with the ‘File | Save as…’ command, and then edit this new copy as needed.
7.5 Solo and Mute Pop-Up Window Controls
Solo means that only the soloed monitors reproduce audio while others are muted. Mute means
that the selected monitors are muted and do not play audio.
Solo and mute can be activated for each monitor and subwoofer. A pop-up menu for these controls
opens when right-clicking a monitor or subwoofer icon. Solo and Mute states can be cleared in the
menu by selecting ‘Play all’. Solo and Mute states are also cleared when the group is changed.
7.6 ‘Bass Man’ Button
When the ‘Bass Man’ button by-passes the Bass Management. When the ‘Bass Man’ is active, the
low frequencies are driven to monitors instead of being sent to a subwoofer. This enables you to
understand the impact of using the bass management and driving the low frequencies to the
subwoofer. Bass Management bypass can be used to check how mixes behave when the
subwoofer is bypassed.
The Bass Management Bypass button is visible if there is a subwoofer in the group.
Regardless of a state of the Bass Management Bypass button, LFE channel will be reproduced by
the subwoofer.
