Chapter 4 : Getting Started
Introduction
Before powering the DLZ Creator on, let’s take a few minutes to get acquainted with the wording that will be used throughout
this Owner’s Manual. Doing so will minimize confusion and increase productivity, a great combination!
Tapping and Dragging
The tap-and-drag sounds like it could be a brand-new dance, but alas, ’tis not. Instead they are the functions you will be using:
There are a multitude of things to tap: tabs (and sub tabs) along the navigation bar, channel IDs, preset pull-downs,
on/off switches and many more. The DLZ Creator works in similar fashion. In most cases, it is tap to engage, tap again
to disengage.
Some things may be double-tapped to reset to their default settings. For example, pans will be centered,
EQ will be set to 0 dB gain, etc. Also, a double-tap on a channel ID will quickly navigate to that channel’s parameters.
Dragging is how to adjust pans, EQ, gate, compressor and FX settings to name just a few. Keep a finger on the parameter
and drag the selected item to the desired destination. You will become a master dragger in no time!

under the hood wake up. After their slumber, you will be welcomed with the following screen:
