CONCEPTS - Key Modifiers

 

 

There are a number of Omnisphere functions that are modified by combining a mouse-click (or click and drag) with one of three Key Modifiers; the Command/Control key, Shift key, or the Option/Alt key. In the manual these are referred to as:

 

Control-Click (Mac users, use Command-click) 

Sliders & Knobs: resets the slider or knob to a neutral or default position.

Browsers: allows selection of multiple Attributes.

Envelopes (editing): Control-click and drag to engage the Lock function.

 

Shift-Click

Sliders & Knobs: Shift-click and drag allows finer and more precise adjustments to values.

Envelopes (editing): Shift-click and drag to engage the Zoom X/Y function

 

Option-Click (PC users, use Alt-click)

Envelopes (editing): Option-click to engage the Snap function.

Knobs: Option-click on a parameter to display its value without changing it.

 

NOTE: Omnisphere defaults to linear mode. Your host may determine a different default mode, but you can still temporarily switch to the alternate mode by using Option-click.
