Basic touch screen
operations
This section explains the basic procedures you can
perform on the QL’s touch screen.
Pressing the touch screen
You will mainly use this operation to switch screens and
pages, to select parameters to be operated, and to turn
buttons on/off. Certain buttons let you specify a number
based on the area of the button itself that you touch.
NOTE
Typically, you will press a top panel key once, but in certain
cases you can access special functions by rapidly pressing
a key twice in succession.
Multiple selection (specifying a range)
While pressing your finger on the touch panel, move it in
the left or right direction to specify a range within a
character string. You will use this technique primarily
when assigning a name to a scene or library.
For the channel select buttons, you can select multiple
buttons by moving your finger across the touch screen
while continuing to press down.
NOTE
This makes it easy to select a range of buttons to be turned
on or off together.
Using the knobs on the top panel
The knobs on the top panel are rotated to change the
value of the corresponding parameter. Also, by pressing
a knob, you can recall a specific screen.
For certain parameters, you can adjust the value in finer
steps (greater detail) by simultaneously holding down
the knob and rotating it.
Using the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob
The [TOUCH AND TURN] knob is used to operate the
knobs selected for operation in the touch screen.
Press the touch screen to select the knob you want to
operate. When you press a knob, a highlight outline is
displayed around that knob. Turn the [TOUCH AND
TURN] knob to adjust the value for the corresponding
parameter.
NOTE
Pressing certain knobs a second time while the outline is
displayed will open a screen in which you can make
additional detailed settings.
On-screen user interface
The section below explains various user interface
components that appear in the touch screen, and how to
use them. Examples of screens appearing on the touch
screen are shown below.
USER DEFINED KEY SETUP window
Displayed when selecting items from a list, such as a list
of USER DEFINED keys.
The constantly highlighted item in the center is the
selected item. Press the / located below the list to
scroll the list upward or downward.
NOTE
You can also scroll the list up or down by using the [TOUCH
AND TURN] knob.
If there is more than one list in the screen, your operations
will apply to the list enclosed in a white frame.
