Soft Limits

Each gain type control provides upper and lower soft limits that can limit the range of the group master control. Soft limits (), shown at left, prevent group controls from exceeding an upper limit or going below a lower limit. They are easily adjustable and provide the ability to set a ceiling and floor for the group. When a group master is created, the soft limits default to the hard limits (maximum and minimum) of that group of controls.

Soft Limits can be defined using the mouse by dragging the soft limit icon. The resolution is 0.1 dB. For more precise setting use the keyboard as follows:

Click within the group master fader to bring focus, then use the following key combinations:

To move the upper limit:

<Shift + Up/Down Arrow> key moves in 0.1 dB increments.

<Shift + Page Up/Page Down> key moves in 10 dB increments.

<Shift + Home> moves limit to upper default.

<Shift + End> moves limit to the current fader position.

To move the lower limit:

<Ctrl + Up/Down Arrow> key moves in 0.1 dB increments.

<Ctrl + Page Up/Page Down> key moves in 10 dB increments.

<Ctrl + End> moves limit to lower default.

<Ctrl + Home> moves limit to the current fader position.
