5. Control
Mu-so can be controlled from either its touch panel and
rotary control, its supplied remote control handset or the
Naim app. The Naim app offers a complete suite of mu-so
control and setup facilities and we recommend that before
you begin to use mu-so you download and install the app on
your iOS or Android phone or tablet. The Naim app can be
found easily in both the iTunes App Store and Google Play
Store.
The three control interfaces are described in the following
paragraphs.
5.1 The mu-so Touch Panel and Rotary Control
The mu-so touch panel display and rotary control enable
selection of inputs and control of volume. Illumination
display around the rotary control also indicates mu-so
startup, streaming and operational processes.
To begin, touch the display Standby icon to wake mu-so
from standby. The touch panel, illustrated in Diagrams 10 to
18, incorporates the following control features:
• Audio transport touch icons across the centre of the
panel enable selection of play, pause, previous and
next.
Note: Mu-so audio transport controls will only operate on
USB and streaming audio sources and then only once play
has been initiated from the Naim app.
• Above the transport icons are icons that illuminate to
indicate the identity of a currently playing stream.
• In the lower half of the touch panel, radio and input
touch icons indicate and enable the selection of the
iRadio and local input sockets (analogue, USB and
digital).
Note: AirPlay, Bluetooth, and Spotify Connect streams
cannot be selected from the touch panel but are selected
automatically when mu-so is in receipt of a stream over
a wired or wireless network. Touch panel icons indicate
the selection of AirPlay, Spotify, Bluetooth and UPnP™
streams.
• Around the circumference of the touch panel are
eleven indicator segments that illuminate to indicate
volume level, radio preset selection and local input
selection.
The mu-so iRadio input is selected by touching the radio
icon. Mu-so will initially play the last radio station selected.
If this is one of the five mu-so radio presets, one of the
of the five upper circumference segments will illuminate.
Subsequent touches of the radio icon will select the next
iRadio preset.
Note: iRadio station browsing and preset management
functions are only available using the Naim app.
When one of the mu-so local inputs is selected by touching
the input icon, one of the three upper circumference
segments will illuminate to indicate selection of either the
analogue input, digital input or USB input. Subsequent
touches of the input icon will select the next local input.
Note: Mu-so will automatically select its side panel
analogue input when a connection plug is inserted in the
socket.
Note: While the mu-so USB input can be selected from the
touch panel, audio file browsing and selection functions
are only available using the Naim app.
• The metallic outer section of the touch panel rotates to
adjust volume. While volume adjustment is underway
the circumference indicators illuminate progressively
to indicate volume level.
