Working with StudioWare
There are a variety of ways to adjust the values of buttons, sliders, and knobs:
To change the value of a knob or slider using the keyboard, you must first select the control:
• To select a control that has a numeric value display or label, click on the value or the label.
• To select a control without a numeric value display, click on the control, being careful to click at
the current control position. If you do not click at the current control position, the control will
change values as a result of the mouse click.
To adjust a knob or slider using the keyboard:
• Press the - and + keys to decrease or increase the value of the selected control by the smallest
amount
• Press the [ and ] keys to decrease or increase the value of the selected control by steps of 10
Grouping controls
SONAR lets you create groups of StudioWare controls. When several controls are in a single group,
you can move a single control and have the remaining controls in the group adjust automatically.
This is useful for many different mixing and crossfade applications.
When you create a group of controls, each control in the group has a starting and an ending value.
Here’s how these values are used:
• When you move any control in the group to its starting value, all controls in the group are set to
their starting value
• When you move any control in the group to its ending value, all controls in the group are set to
their ending value
• When you position any control in the group somewhere between its starting and ending value, all
controls in the group are set to the same relative position between their starting and ending value
