Basic Operation
Lector has been optimized for a screen resolution of at
least 1024x768 pixels. If the resolution of your screen is
lower you will have to scroll your window.
Key Combinations
•
If you hold down the [CTRL] key (PC) or Command
key (Mac) on your computer keyboard and click on
any control, its value is automatically set to its default
value (e.g. Cutoff is set to 20000Hz, Bands is set to
42 or EQ Treble is set to 0).
•
If you use a computer mouse with scroll wheel you
can use it to change parameters. Move your mouse
pointer over the desired value and use the scroll
wheel to change it. If you hold down the [SHIFT] key
you can increase the resolution.
•
If the dial control mode of your host application is set
to “circle mode” (you change a value by dragging
around the dial in a circle), then you can temporarily
change to “up/down mode” by holding down [ALT].
Control Elements
Using Lector’s controls is simple. There are some different
types of control elements:
Dials
To set a value, click on the dial, hold down the
mouse button and drag around the dial in a
circle or move the mouse up and down. This
depends on the setting of your host application.
Alternatively you can edit values by using your mouse
scroll wheel.
