About Tab

This tab contains information on your hardware and current driver software versions. This information may be helpful, should you ever have the occasion to call for technical support. Clicking the buttons at the bottom of the panel will take you to useful links on the M-Audio website, if you are currently online.

Additional Functions

ProFire 610 also features a variety of functions accessible through its File, View, and Help menus. These menus are as follows:

File

This menu allows you to save and load all of the parameters of the Control Panel. Selecting Save or Load will open a dialog window that allows you to browse to a folder of your choice and manage the Control Panel parameter files. This is useful if you’d like to save various configurations (i.e., a multi-tracking setup, a surround mixing setup, etc.) so that you do not have to manually reconfigure your system each time you work on a different type of project.

The “Load Recent” sub-menu lists up to 10 of the most recent Control Panel configurations that you have loaded. The “Clear Menu” option clears the list of recently loaded files (this option does not affect the actual configuration files—it simply removes the recent file names from the sub-menu).

The “Revert to Factory Settings” option allows you to reset all of the ProFire 610 Control Panel parameters to their factory default settings.
