Master ID Button
The master fader’s name and image is similar to that of a channel
strip’s name and image.
Like the channel faders, the master fader’s name and image is also
user-editable. Simply tap the button at the bottom of the master
fader and a popover allows editing a name or selecting an image.
Let’s start with the name. Tap in the name box to bring up the
blinking cursor and keyboard (as seen in the image below).
Simply type in the name you want followed by a carriage return.
Note the text change between the button shown to the left [“Main”]
versus the one as shown below [“PA”].
For familiarity, this is the same keyboard that is used for messaging or emailing from the iPad.
It goes without saying that tapping “Default Name” changes the master fader’s name back
to its default name.
As seen in all of these images, a small name resides in the upper-left corner of the master ID button
regardless of the name and/or image. This system name represents each output and it cannot be
changed or removed. Trust us, it’s for the best, as it is for easy identifi cation of each output, even after
you rename it something goofy.
