UI Setup... Opens a submenu of various options related to the front panel UI. To exit the
submenu, press the
EXIT button. The options are:
Enc. Confirm Off Disables the need to press the encoder to confirm changes you
make to a parameter value. When
‘Off’ , changing the value of
most
(note)
screen parameters happens instantly (or on the next clock
pulse, when running) — you do not need to press the encoder to
‘apply’ the choice. This makes parameter changes highly responsive,
but may result in hearing some potentially unwanted changes as you
scroll through various options to find the one you want.
NOTE: Some parameters always require encoder confirmation.
Specifically: the AUX input settings; the MOD Lane destinations; and
OUT A/B assignments .
On Changing the value of a screen parameter requires that you press
the encoder to ‘apply’ the new value. This prevents you from hearing
any potentially unwanted changes as you scroll through options to
find the one you want. However, it reduces the immediacy of your
selections.
NOTE: Any parameter change that requires you to press the encoder
to apply it will display a “?’ after the new parameter value.
For example if Enc. Confirm = On , and you go to the LEN screen
and change the
Stages
values from ‘8’ to ‘7’ , a “?” will appear after
the ‘7’ , indicating you must press the encoder to confirm the choice.
If Enc. Confirm = Off , then no “?” would appear, and the
Stages
value would change to ‘7’ immediately (without pressing the
encoder).
Show Pos. If desired, you can have Metropolix’ screen display a small position
indicator, which (like the PITCH SLIDER LEDs) identifies which of
the active track’s Stages is currently playing. This parameter
determines when and where this position indicator is displayed, as
discussed here:
On The sequence position pointer appears on all Stage parameter
editing screens.
Off The sequence position pointer does not appear on any Stage
parameter overview or editing screen. However the currently playing
stage is always indicated by the lit LEDs on the PITCH SLIDERS.
Button LED Level 1-5 Sets the brightness of all backlit buttons, with “1” being the dimmest
setting and “5” being the brightest.
Slider LED Level 1-5 Sets the brightness of the LEDs on the Pitch Sliders, with “1” being
the dimmest setting and “5” being the brightest.
Version FW vers Displays the module’s firmware version.
Hidden behind the Version display is the Factory menu , which (if instructed by
Intellijel Tech Support) is opened by highlighting the Version display, then
holding the MOD button and clicking the encoder.
