Ultra-compact digital audio mixer

3. DESCRIPTION OF THE INTERNAL MENU.
The AEQ CAPITOL internal menu is displayed on the main display of the Control and
Monitoring section of the control surface.
Most of them allow you to modify the values shown (although some pages of the internal menu
are merely informative), changing routing, gains or applying processes to the audio signals. For
this purpose, the three rotary encoders and the four contextual keys associated to this display
will be used.
Depending on the information shown on the last line of the menu display, the four contextual
keys immediately beneath the display will have different functions. This last line of the menu will
have a maximum of four visibles options.
The three rotary encoders are associated with the options shown in the menu (each specific
menu will be explained in detail later in this manual). The specific association of the encoders is
following the next thumb rule: the menu option that is shown farthest to the left or in the highest
position is controlled from the encoder located farthest to the left.
The default screen of AEQ CAPITOL shown in the main Control and Monitoring section display
includes the AEQ logo, the product name AEQ CAPITOL, the active user level and current date
and time.
The four options visible on the last line of the display are associated with the four contextual
keys below, from left to right:
•
“

and Countdown functions.
