UI OVERVIEW

Iris 2 has a dynamic new user interface (UI) designed to make every control easily

accessible and easy to use. In addition to being resizable, you can customize the UI to

work best for your computer and workﬂow by hiding, revealing, or undocking dierent

panels. Along with MIDI Assignments, the UI layout you set up will save between sessions

so Iris will look and feel the same each time you use it.

This is an overview of the Main UI with all the panels open:

The view we see above is made up of seven panels, four of which can be dynamically

opened and closed simply by clicking in each tab. Another four panels (Browser, Mix,

Modulation, and Macro Controls) can be completely undocked from the UI to be arranged

and displayed on a second monitor and set out of the way when not in use.

Every parameter, button, and knob in Iris 2 is equipped with a Tool Tip. Simply hover your

mouse cursor over something and a short description, or Tool Tip, will pop up to help

indicate what that object does. This feature can be disabled in the Options Panel.
