Assignment button
It is possible to remote-control certain Sequel functions
by assigning external controllers, i.e. small mixers or key-
board controllers with USB or MIDI connection and the
ability to send MIDI messages.
If you activate this button the main user interface becomes
dimmed, so that you can clearly see which elements can be
assigned to remote controls (indicated by black frames).
Click on the button again to switch into “normal” mode.
For further information, see “Remote-controlling Sequel”
on page 85.
Minimizing, maximizing and closing
This works slightly differently for Windows and Macintosh:
Windows
In the top right hand corner the program window, there are
buttons for minimizing, maximizing and closing Sequel.
• Selecting the Minimize button will hide the window in
the system tray.
• Selecting the Maximize button will stretch out the pro-
gram window to fill your screen.
Selecting the Maximize button again will shrink the window and allow you
to manually resize it by clicking and holding the bottom right corner of the
program window and dragging until you find a window size that feels
comfortable.

Selecting the Maximize button again will shrink the window and allow you

The ruler
The ruler is located just above the Arrange Zone. It dis-
plays the project’s timeline as numbers corresponding to
the bars and beats of your song.
Next to being a useful display the ruler also is a great tool
for editing.
• You can use the ruler to move the cursor around by
clicking in the lower portion of the ruler bar at the position
you would like to move the cursor to.
