 +**Main Panel**\\ 
 +**Analyzer Control.**\\ 
 +\\ 
 +{{:images:sound2light_2_main.jpg|}}\\ 
 +\\ 
 +In the right side we have the analyzer control with the following options.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**AGC – Automatic Gain Control:** As the name says Automatic Gain Control.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**ATC - Auto Threshold Control:** This can help for better beat detection. Default: Off, can be switched on.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**ABC - Auto Beat decay Control:** For an automatic more stable beat trigger output. This control works with info from the BPM counter. Default: Off, can be switched on.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +These controls can also manually be set with the sliders.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Gain:** Set the audio level.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Beat Freq:** Set a filter for the beat frequency you want to detect.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Thr:** Threshold sets the level where beat is detected.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Beat Decay:** This parameter sets the pause time after a beat before the next can be detected. This gives a more stable beat detection.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +On the two meters it is possible to see the audio signal and the beat filtered signal\\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Main Control.**\\ 
 +In the left side we have the main control.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +{{:images:sound2light_2_start_button.jpg|}}\\ 
 +\\  
 +\\ 
 +**Start/Stop:** Activate (green light)/deactivate (red light) the beat detection.\\ 
 +**Config:** See the Config section\\ 
 +**Beat:**  Indicates with the light when a beat is detected. Furthermore, pressing this button will send a beat trigger to FreeStyler.\\ 
 +The 4 blue lights: The 4 blue lights (LED's) or dot is showing the status for the multiplier/divider when one of these feature and the beat detecting is activated. \\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +{{:images:sound2light_2_bpm_counter.jpg|}}\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**BPM counter:** As the name says Beats Per Minutes.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Beat multiplier/divider**\\ 
 +It is possible to set if audio beat are to be multiplied or divided when it is send as trigger signal to FreeStyler.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +**Multiply:**\\ 
 +{{:images:sound2light_2_multiplier_tap.jpg|}}\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Defaule is 1 which means the 1 audio beat generates 1 trigger signal to FreeStyler.\\ 
 +It is possible to set the multiplication to 2, 3 or 4. This means that it is possible to generate example 2 trigger signals to FreeStyler per 1 audio beat.\\ 
 +This makes it possible to step a sequence more steps in between two audio beats.\\ 
 +K/G: Keep on Going enabled will give that the trigger signals is send to FreeStyler even if no audio beat detected.  \\ 
 +\\   
 +\\ 
 +**Divide:**\\ 
 +{{:images:sound2light_2_divider_tap.jpg|}}\\ 
 +\\ 
 +It is also possible to divide the audio beat into a slower trigger signal to FreeStyler.\\ 
 +In this way it is possible to step a sequence for example on each 2nd audio beat.\\ 
 +It is possible to divide the audio beat with 2, 4, 6 or 8\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Note: It is not possible to use Multiply and Divide at the same time.\\ 
 +\\

 ---- ----
 +**FreeStyler Sound configuration**\\
 +Sound2light is an external add-on to FreeStyler and FreeStyler has it’s own configuration which need to be set.\\
 +\\
 +{{:images:freestyler_sound_2_configuration.jpg|}}\\
 +\\
 +There are basically two way the beat trigger can be used to control FreeStyler.\\
 +**Jump to next scene:** Controls running sequences and the DMX400 chaser.\\
 +To use Jump to next scene to control DMX400 the check box in the bottom of the panel must be checked “ON”\\
 +\\
 +**Random DMX value:** This generates random values direct to the fixture on the following channels: gobo, color, pan & tilt.\\
 +\\
 +**Buttons:**\\
 +The two buttons ”Running”, Run / Pause the beat signal from the Sound2Light beat trigger and the “Trigger” button makes it possible for you to manually trigger a step.\\
 +Note: These functions are a part of FreeStyles and the same functionality in the Sound2Light add-on are a part of the add-on.\\
 +\\
 +**Jump to next scene:**\\
 +When you are using this mode you can control the scene / step shift in your sequences by the beat from the Sound2Light programmer.\\
 +Each beat will trig the chosen sequence to go to next step.\\
 +For more info of how to setup the Cue window to react on sound. See [[sound_to_light_cue_window_configuration|]].\\
 +\\
 +**Random DMX value:**\\
 +In this modes fixtures enabled to react to sound will be controlled by the sound to light control in freestyler.\\ The sound to light control generates a random value for following fixture channels: gobo, color (colorwheel and RGB), pan & tilt.\\
 +You also need to enable the wanted fixtures to react to the sound.\\
 +For more info see [[sound_to_light_random_dmx_values_setup|]]\\
