4 FUNCTIONS
4.1 Functions usage
In dvaNetwork functions can be applied to a collection of devices and allows the user to:

Change volume and delay of a collection of devices, regardless they belong to an Eq Group.

Add delay algorithm to some devices (ex. Curve algorithm that can be applied to subwoofer)
Unlike Groups, more than one Function can be applied to the same device.
DvaNetwork automatically calculates the total Gain and delay that must be sent to the devices taking into
account all Group Eq and other applied
functions.
Functions can’t use Eq. Filters, so if users have to change the frequency response of a collection of
devices they must use the “Group” functionality.
4.2 Assign devices to a new function
In order to assign a new function select devices and then right click over one of them and open the menu
“Assign to function->New->Master/Curve”
After this operation, it will open the Function Edit window that allows to change parameters.
The “<<” button shows and hides the
devices Function list.
This list is needed to manage Functions because, unlike groups, devices that belong to a Function do not
change their color.
In addition the list displays the Delay assigned to each device. This is useful when “curve” algorithm is
applied.
The “Select” button simply selects the corresponding device plugin on the synoptic.
Up and Down buttons on the right allow to change order of the devices in the list.
The “Delete” button deletes the selected device from the Function List.
