The app presents four tabs `Settings`, `Physical Strip`, `Virtual Strip` and `Buses`. Navigate between the tabs with `Control + TAB` and `Control + SHIFT + TAB` or once focused on any tab, `Left` and `Right` arrow keys.
You will find in each of these tabs two nested tabs,`Buttons` and `Sliders`. For each nested tab you will find the controls appropriate for the Voicemeeter kind and channel type.
All buttons may be triggered by pressing `SPACE` or `ENTER`.
All sliders may be controlled in three different ways:
-`Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 1 step.
-`Shift + Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 0.1 steps.
-`Control + Left|Right arrow` to move a slider by 3 steps.
To rename a strip/bus channel focus on the channel in question and press `F2`. Then enter the new channel name into the text input widget and press the `Ok` button.
Pressing the `OK` button with an empty text input will clear the label. In this case the label will be read as a default value for that channel. For example, if the leftmost Strip label were cleared, the screen reader will now read `Hardware Input 1`.
For potato version only, you may access advanced Compressor and Gate sliders. Simply focus any Gate or Compressor slider and press `Control + A`. This will open a popup window where you can navigate between the different sliders with `TAB`. Move the sliders with the same binds you would for normal sliders. However, there are a couple of extra binds for certain controls.
For Compressor Release you may use:
-`Alt + Left|Right arrow` to move the slider by 10 steps.
-`Alt + Control + Left|Right arrow` to move the slider by 50 steps.
For Gate BP Sidechain, Attack, Hold, Release you may use:
-`Alt + Left|Right arrow` to move the slider by 10 steps.
-`Alt + Control + Left|Right arrow` to move the slider by 50 steps.
To reset a slider back to its default value you may use `Control + Shift + R`.
A single menu item `Voicemeeter` can be opened using `Alt` and then `v`. The menu allows you to:
- Restart Voicemeeter audio engine
- Save/Load current settings (as an xml file)
- Set a config to load automatically on app startup.
The `Save Settings` option opens a popup window with two buttons, `Browse` and `Cancel`. Browse opens a Save As dialog, Cancel returns to the main app window.
You may also enter slider modes which allow for control of the channels sliders until the slider mode is exited. You may access the slider modes with the following binds:
Once you are in a slider mode you may now control the slider that matches the slider mode. Slider mode binds are the same as the normal slider binds with the addition of the Alt keypress. For example, where you would normally use `Right Arrow` to shift a slider rightwards by 1 step, in slider mode you would now use `Alt + Right Arrow`.
