FILE 1 + FILE 2

CUE → READY → LIVE

Files are selected from Stream Deck—not requested when the Engine starts. Each state makes the next action deliberate and visible.

Load and preview the chosen file without sending it to the live output. Use the scrubber to position the file.

Master controller

One controller, clearly identified functions.

The touch strip identifies the active parameter while the Master dial provides accurate physical adjustment.

Muted

Source mute active

Mute stops the selected source and changes its state visibly so silence is never ambiguous. Control knobs can be pressed to MUTE as well .

APP Gain, Bass Mid and Treble adjustment

Select APP (from either the Source button or the monitor meter), choose TREBLE on the touch strip, then use the Master controller for the tonal adjustment shown on the dial display.

Independent monitoring

Mute the output you choose.

Speakers, headphones and REC OUT remain separate, allowing monitoring choices without forcing the same change into every path.

Headset

Headset muted

Mute the headset monitoring path while leaving the other configured outputs available.
