QuickSwitch Settings
At the top of the Revolution 7.1 Control Panel are five buttons that allow you to
quickly change the output settings of your Revolution. After installation, these
QuickSwitch buttons default to Headphone, Stereo, 5.1 Surround Sound, 6.1
Surround Sound, and 7.1 Surround Sound. You can change these buttons to
reflect any presets you want to save. For example, you might have one setting
that’s optimized for DVD playback, and another for game playing. You can have
up to five QuickSwitch buttons in the Revolution 7.1 Control Panel.
To delete a QuickSwitch button:
1.
Right-click on the button you want to delete.
2. Select “Remove QuickSwitch button…”
3. Click “Yes” at the prompt.
To add a QuickSwitch button:
1.
Set the controls as you would like them saved, using the instructions in
the following sections.
2. Make sure there are four or less QuickSwitch buttons at the top of the
screen. If there are five already there, you’ll need to delete one of the
QuickSwitch buttons using the instructions in the previous paragraph.
3. Click and hold on the blue “Current Set” icon and drag it up into the
QuickSwitch settings area.
“Save As” Button
Additionally, to the right of the “Current Set “ field, there is a “Save As” button which
has the same functionality as the “Add to QuickSwitch Sets” feature from the
Current Set drop-down menu. Use this to save speaker configurations with their
own name, for which you can also choose a Speaker Set icon. Just click “Save As”,
enter a name in the new window, find & click the appropriate Speaker Set icon, and
then click “OK” to save your new settings.
Speaker Setup Tab
This tab sets the size and volume of the speakers. First, check the Speaker Set
menu to see if your speakers are included in the manufacturer’s presets. If not, the
settings in this tab will ensure the best performance from your speaker system.
On the left side of this window is a three dimensional picture of your speaker
setup. By default, the front left and right speakers are highlighted. To change the
settings of any other speaker, just click on that speaker in the diagram. Each
speaker has it’s own settings, so if you have large Front Left and Right speakers
with a small Center speaker, you can set your system up accordingly.
