+**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|]]\\
