Shortcut Keys and Mouse Support


Alt+click:

If you Alt+click on the "active" light of a module on the faceplate, that module is made active and all other modules are bypassed.

If you Alt+click on the mute ("M") button of a multiband that band is solo'ed.

 

Wheel Mouse Notes:

If you have a wheel mouse, you can adjust most controls (I/O gain, sliders, etc.) by simply positioning the mouse cursor over the control and rolling the wheel. If the wheel has no effect, try clicking on the plugin to make sure Trash has the keyboard focus.

In the filter modules you can adjust the Q or resonance (hold Ctrl to select which) of a selected band with the wheel.

In the History screen, you can use the wheel to scroll through the History list.

 

Mouse and Meters:

Zoom in and out on level histograms by holding down the Ctrl key under Windows or the Command key under OS X and clicking with the left mouse button to zoom in or the right mouse button to zoom out. Under OS X you can also Command-ctrl-click to zoom out.

Reset the peaks or averaging of the spectrum by clicking on the spectrum.

Reset a meter's peak indication by clicking on it. You can also reset a level meter's clipping indicator by clicking on the clipping indicator (the red "over" light at the top).

 

Copy/Paste Support:

Right-click (under OS X you can also ctrl-click) on any slider to bring up a context menu allowing you to copy and paste its value. You can copy/paste between sliders, even if the sliders are in different instances of the plugin. You can also copy/paste between a slider and a text editor such as Notepad in order to see the slider's value to a much higher precision than the plugin displays.
