4.1 OVERVIEW OF THE PLAY PAGE
Click the PLAY PAGE SELECTOR in the NAVIGATION BAR .
The Play page includes instrument-level controls that are unique to each library or col-
lection, and other instrument-level controls that are available to all libraries.
Use the
WINDOW SELECTORS in the secondary PALETTE MENU to switch the PLAY PAGE between its
various windows: Player, MIDI Tools, Automation, and Articulation. These are explained
in detail in this chapter.
The INSTRUMENT SELECTOR MENU displays the currently selected instrument, and allows you to
switch between all loaded instruments by clicking in the drop-down menu.
The
PURGE CONTROL is divided into 3 sections: green indicates an instrument loaded into
memory (RAM) based on the Preload Size preference selected under Settings. Click on
the left side of the pill to turn it red, indicating an instrument has been purged from
memory. As you begin playing the center of the pill will light up yellow, indicating sam-
ples are being streamed in real-time and loaded into memory, only as needed.
The
VIRTUAL KEYBOARD at the bottom of the Opus UI shows the sampled range of an instru-
ment (white keys), keyswitches (blue), and the active keyswitch (yellow).
