Global Keyboard Menu

This menu page is used to configure the Global Keyboard instrument. This instrument can be set to contain up to 10 keys that can be used in various ways. Each Global Keyboard key set to "Instrument" mode can control functions of several instruments even if they are placed in different Audio Groups. For example, the "Start", "Stop" and "Reset" functions of a Loudness Sum instrument, a LRA instrument and a Radar instrument could be controlled by one set of Start, Stop and Reset keys in the Global Keyboard instead of creating separate keyboards for every single instrument. Also, using the Global Keyboard, instrument keys can be controlled externally using the TouchMonitor's GPIO interface. Alternatively, each Global Keyboard key set to "Preset" mode can be configured to load a new preset.

  

Please note:
Assigning a global key to an instrument function is a two-step-process: First, set this key to "Instrument" mode by selecting its button and using the "Key function" option in the Global Key menu page. Then, in the Key Settings menu of the instrument to be controlled, assign the instrument's function you wish to control to this global key in the "Global Keyboard" section.

  

Please note:
One Global Keyboard instrument with up to 10 keys can be configured in each preset.
