Modalità semplice / avanzata

Welcome to another installment of the TouchMix Training Series.

In this video we’ll talk about the difference between Advanced and Simple Modes.

Understanding the difference between these two modes will help you achieve great results quickly.

Advanced and Simple Modes are available on a variety of mixer functions,

including gates, compressor, EQ, FX and more.

Simple and Advanced Modes cater to all different kinds of users, and their varying experience with mixing.

Advanced Mode gives you full control over a given function,

while Simple Mode hides and condenses certain controls to make it easier and faster to use.

Let me give you an example. Let’s take a look at just one of the functions of the mixer.

Let’s say, Compression, for example.

In Advanced Mode, you have access to all of these parameters to control compression.

But to understand the value of Simple Mode,

let’s assume that you’re like me and that you have a basic understanding of compression

but you don’t know how to control all of these parameters.

A tap of the Simple button streamlines this process into a few intuitive controls

while hiding the rest of the controls in the background.

Changing between the two modes is easy, and it only affects the controls on the page you’re working on.

You can keep one page on Advanced Mode and others on Simple,

and the mixer will remember your preference as you navigate between them.

If you prefer to change all the screen globally across the entire mixer,

just hit he Menu button and select which mode you want to screens to default to.

You can still adjust them manually when you’re on any given screen,

but this lets you quickly put all of them into one state or the other.

And that’s pretty much all there is to it.

You can adjust an EQ screen from 14 knobs to 4 knobs,

depending on how comfortable you are with adjusting EQ.

And your compressor simplifies down to one general purpose control, and the same thing for the gate.

And your FX sends can give you a lot of specificity or just one master control.

So whether you use it to keep things simple or to make basic tasks even faster,

the Simple Mode is a great way to customize your mixer based on your user experience and needs.

And Advanced Mode allows you to get that precise sound that will satisfy even the most seasoned engineer.

And remember: just because you’re changing from Advanced Mode to Simple Mode

doesn’t mean that you lose the values of any settings that are hidden in Simple Mode.

In the next installment we’re going to go over Presets,

and you’ll see how those interact in Simple Mode and Advanced Mode.

See you next time.
