A userobject output may be connected to multiple userobject inputs. This means a single module’s userobject
output can show up in several menu pages in the
PARAMETER
area.
Note: If an module’s
PARAMETER
area graphic is
shown more than once on a single menu page, the second instance might not be updated when the first instance’s value changes and vice versa.
Parameter Placement on a Menu Page

Menu page design may be highly individualized. The “look and feel” of a menu page is important if a
program is complex or if there are displayed reactions to adjustments that must be viewed and understood
quickly. For instance, if a program uses a meter monitor to display the signal level in a given frequency
quickly. For instance, if a program uses a meter monitor to display the signal level in a given frequency
range while a knob parameter gives adjustment of the compression level in that frequency range, it is
important to have the knob parameter and the meter monitor on the same menu page. It may also be
important to have the knob parameter and the meter monitor on the same menu page. It may also be
possible to show the relationship between a fader parameter and a meter monitor by placing them on
the same menu page. This kind of “look and feel” control is performed through the connection of userobject
the same menu page. This kind of “look and feel” control is performed through the connection of userobject
outputs to menupage modules.
This section goes through a tutorial to show:
•
Parameters are presented on a menu page in the
PARAMETER
area in the order their userobjects are
connected to a menupage module, with placement beginning in the upper left corner of the screen
and proceeding to lower right corner of the screen.
•
Modules that produce parameters with simple text
take up one eighth of the screen

Placing a Vfader, a Meter, and Four Knob Modules
It is possible to build a good looking menu page using
six modules connected to a menupage module. The

To achieve this arrangement, the modules’ userobject
outputs must be connected to the menupage module
in exactly the order shown to the right:
1. main fader-obj
2. left low knob-obj
3. left high knob-obj
4. right low knob-obj
5. right high knob-obj
6. meter-obj
