ON AIR button
Toggle the ON AIR button to deactivate all rendering (2D preview, 3D scenes) in the Modulo Kinetic Designer to dedicate all ressources to show control for a more smooth operating experience.
Grand master fader
The slider controls the global opacity of the rendering of all Kinetic V-Nodes. You can click on the 0 button to smoothly fade to black and click on the 100 to smoothly fade to full opacity. You can control the duration (in seconds) of these 0 to 100 fade transition using the dedicated field underneath the fader.

In a compute graph
When drag & dropped into a compute graph, this button can create nodes to either receive value from external show control applications, StreamDeck devices, or VR headsets.
Each node will have a id_startWith input pin (also available as a field in the Editor panel for the node) to filter the value you wish to receive.

Monitor connected applications
In this panel, icons will appear notifying the number of applications connected to your Kinetic Designer :
• Monitor Warp Remotes
• Monitor Live Mixers
• Monitor Kinetic Panels
• Monitor if there is a Slave Kinetic Designer connected to the Kinetic Master.
• Display any Show Control application connected to the Kinetic Designer (for example a Medialon Manager or a Crestron show control) if there are any.
