In display mode, the TouchMonitor shows the instruments and their layout defined in the currently loaded preset.
Touching the screen area of an instrument will put this instrument into focus. This is recognized by a colored frame instead of a grey one. The frame color conforms to the identifier set for the group the focused instrument belongs to.
The Control Bar positioned at the lower screen edge contains several keys. It is displayed permanently if the "Control Bar" option in the "General" section of the "System" menu is set to "permanent". Otherwise, it will be displayed temporarily after touching the screen.
The Control Bar has two sections. The left (upper) section shows the
specific keys defined for the focused instrument. This makes it very fast to
access a specific function of one of the instruments on screen – just touch
the instrument and select the desired function.
The right (lower) section shows general keys.
The Dialnorm instrument can calculate and show Dialnorm values from its digital input signals. Dialnorm is used in film sound mixing and describes the normalization of the dialog loudness level (dialogue normalisation) with respect to a certain reference monitoring level (–31 dBFS in surround applications). The idea behind this scheme is that the perceived total loudness of a mixed audio signal may be determined and kept constant at the listening end by using the dialogue level (optimized for a combination of good intelligibility and minimal nuisance through excessive volumes) with its fixed loudness ratio in relation to music and sound effects as a reference.
With the Dialnorm instrument in focus, the left (upper) section of the Control Bar may contain any or all of the keys described below.
The right (lower) section of the Control Bar always contains the following four keys:
