MAIN INTERFACE

Tool Bar

The toolbar will only be visible when you are running Deckadance in 'stand-alone' mode (it is not visible in VST mode). If you wish to access File and General options use the [Setup] button among the Function switches on the main interface. The Toolbar contains the following:

• Audio -
  • Audio Setup - Use to select Audio inputs/outputs. This is only available in Stand-Alone mode. If you are running Deckadance as a VST then these options are accessed through your host. The options in the Audio & MIDI Setup dialog will depend on your soundcard and attached controllers. Use these options to select Audio and MIDI inputs/outputs.

    MIDI, File & General Setup - Are accessed from the [SETUP] button in the Function switches area on the main interface.

• TAP - Tap tempo. Tap this button 4 to 8 times and the average tapping speed will be set in the BPM window.
• Tempo - Displayed in BPM (32 to 256). Double-click the number display to enter a specific BPM. The tempo can also be changed with the TAP button or click on the 'fine-tune' +/- switches and drag up/down for fast changes. Right-click on the +/- switches to select Velocity sensitive mode, where mouse movement speed is used to accelerate the BPM change.
• Help - You found it! Opens the help. You know the thing you are now reading...unless you found this text spray-painted on a cow in the middle of a field, then you are looking at a cow that has been the victim of some kind of bizarre graffiti attack, not the help. Resist the urge to torment the cow further, it's had a hard day. I think the farmer is coming, run away!
