front Panel operation
scroll Navigation - This navigation is used in the Utility menus, as well as in storing, recalling and deleting
presets. It is very useful for finding menu offerings that are located within another sub-menu. For example,
the RTA mic pre gain is located within the Gain/Trim sub-menu of the Utility.
Page Navigation - This is the easiest and most common type of navigation within the DriveRack 4800.
Page navigation is used when there are several pages of parameters that need to be accessed. An example of
Page navigation is found in the Compressor editor where there are three pages of parameters and the NEXT
and PREV PAGE buttons are used to move between these pages.
3.2 - Modes of operation
The standard mode of operation of the DriveRack 4800 is Edit Preset (or Edit) mode. This mode is the
gateway to all editing and is the only “location” from which all the other modes can be accessed. This
mode can be returned to from any other mode or menu by pressing the PRESET button. Pressing the
PRESET button returns you to the main preset screen that shows the signal path through the unit and all
the current processing functions. Additionally, this main preset screen in Edit mode is the safe or home
page; all changes to the system (editing, recalling, storing, deleting, etc.) require button presses to access
these menus. The DriveRack 4800 defaults to this screen and mode upon startup, and returns to this mode
when exiting from all the other modes and menus including: Recall Preset, Store Preset, Delete Preset,
Copy/Paste, Utility, Meter, Wizard, and Configuration. These other modes and/or menus are indicated
by either a button with normal text (White on Black), or by a button with reversed text (Black on White).
The function in normal text is the standard mode, accessed by pressing the button, while the function in
reversed text is the alternate mode, and is accessed by pressing and holding the button for more than two
seconds. An example of this is the STORE/DELETE button, where Store Preset is the standard mode that
is found by pressing the button, and Delete Preset is the alternate mode that is accessed by pressing and
holding for more than two seconds.
