The mode dictates how the panel behaves. The Sound to Sight
Showtime™ has 4 modes which can be selected via the touch screen
or by plugging in a microphone into the ¼” microphone input:
Mode 1: Amplitude and Frequency

music.
Mode 2: Amplitude

Mode 3: Frequency

is high or low pitched). Why not try and fill certain areas of the panel
