DJ / Quiet scene modes

The Live tab speaks two “languages”, and the DJ / Quiet scene switch picks whichever one suits you. They are essentially two different views of the very same console — the program just hides what you don’t need and brings forward what you do.

📍 Where: Live → top row of the central zone, to the right of the banks: two buttons, “DJ” (note icon) and “Quiet scene” (mask icon).

How to use it:

  1. Press “DJ” — the usual view with sound and tempo.
  2. Press “Quiet scene” — the view for cue-based work.

How the modes differ:

🎧 DJ 🎭 Quiet scene
BPM panel shown hidden
Sound Monitor shown hidden
Cue transport large GO / Back / Pause panel + a “Now / Next” list
🎧 For the DJ: everything revolves around the music — you tap out the tempo, the light follows the beat, you react to the track.
🎭 For theater: “Quiet scene” removes the sound section, which isn’t needed during a play, and gives you large buttons to drive the show by the script with “GO” commands.

The smart GO button in “Quiet scene” adapts to the situation: if a playlist is running, it moves to the next cue; if there’s no playlist, it performs a smooth crossfader A→B transition. More in 07.19.

💡 Tip: the selected mode is remembered between program runs — a DJ won’t have to hide the theater panels every time, and vice versa.
