25.10 Menu Options
Deactivate Screensaver:
When active (checked) any activated Windows screensaver will be
disabled temporarily.
Always on Top:
When active (checked) the TotalMix window will always be on top of the Win-
dows desktop.
Note: This function may result in problems with windows containing help text, as the TotalMix
window will even be on top of those windows, so the help text isn't readable.
Enable MIDI / OSC Control:
Activates external MIDI or OSC control of the TotalMix mixer. In
Mackie Protocol mode the channels which are currently under MIDI control are indicated by a
colour change of the name field. This setting also controls the MIDI remote function in stand-
alone operation. The current state is kept when changing from online to offline. Additionally the
current state is stored in the six Setups, the unit’s own memory.
Submix linked to MIDI / OSC control (1-4).
The 8-channel group follows the currently selected
submix, means Hardware Output, when a different submix is chosen on the remote as well as
when doing this in TotalMix. When using multiple windows it can be useful to deactivate this
feature for specific windows. The view will not change then.
