This chapter describes how to work the controls Emulator X. There are certain tips and
tricks to learn in becoming a power user, and a good number of them are in this
chapter.
The Toolbars
The toolbars are located just beneath the menu bar at the top of the window. There is
also a status bar at the bottom of the window. The toolbars provide handy single-click
buttons for the most common operations. By holding the mouse pointer over the tool,
a label will appear revealing the purpose of each tool.
The upper toolbars can be rearranged by simply clicking the Toolbar Handles (see
below) and dragging them wherever you want.
The Status Toolbar is always located at the very bottom of the window and provides
context sensitive information, such as the current MIDI channel, sample/preset name &
number, as well as the number of samples currently playing.
