Volume & Modern EQ

Jeri wrote on 6/26/2023, 2:46 PM

I am running ACL 4 for the first time and I noticed a change. I was unable to find any info in the manual concerning it.

When I drag the volume line (up and down) to adjust volume it no longer tells by how much. The cursor also has something attached to it. Not sure what that is either. Also, I did not know that Modern EQ is does not come with this version of ACL. Can I add it?

Thanks,
Jeri

Hi,

SFACL4 - 26.0.0.23

I get the volume amount when I raise and lower the volume line.

The mouse icon changes depending on which options are current. When you mouse over the volume line button to raise and lower the volume, as per the above image, the cursor icon changes to show that it will now use that button. That is all. Watch the mouse cursor as you move around the windows - it changes to reflect what is under it.

In the image above, you can see that I have Modern Equalizer loaded. You can find it as shown below.

Note that it is a VST3 and the path should be in the scanned VST's:

Thanks so much for your response. I had to upgrade recently so I'm trying to work out all the kinks.

I found the Modern Eq. Now I just need to figure out how to make use of it!

As far as the volume, when I go to raise of lower the volume the box in the picture you sent (Edit the object volume. Currently -1.2dB) does not appear when I move it. To the right of the arrow is the ICON I mentioned. Not sure what it's for?

 

Thanks for the help.

Is it possible to talk to an actual human being from MAGIX support, or is that only a dream from the past ?

Hi Jeri,

The icon represents a slider on a vertical meter, much like on a mixer.

Did you click with the left mouse button? If not, the value is not indicated.

Hi,

How much would you be willing to pay for telephone support?

Me? Nothing. I'll just raise a ticket and supply all pertinent information after having checked the FAQ's, and after having checked the forum for others with the same or similar problem, and after having asked on the forum.

So, why don't you just post your question if you have one?
