When there is no digital audio workstation software is in use,
the Firefly 808 Universal can be controlled using this basic
mixer which is included along with the driver and control panel
software. The signal from this mixing panel is able to be fed
back to the Firefly 808 Universal as a stereo signal, routed to
analog outputs 1 and 2 and the headphones output.
Channel Inputs
1. Mute Button
Pushing this button will mute the corresponding channel,
stopping it from being sent back to the Firefly.
2. Solo Button
Use this button to solo the corresponding channel back to
the Firefly allowing users to monitor the signal. The soloed
channels will be sent to analog outputs 1 and 2 and the
headphones output on the Firefly 808.
3. Link Button
Pushing this button will enable a link function, allowing users to
control two channels as if they were one with the fader, mute
and solo buttons being 'linked' to two inputs.
4. Pan
Each of the Firefly's inputs are set to either left or right by
default, with odd channels being set to the left, and even
channels being set to the right.
5. Fader
Click and hold the mouse button on the fader to adjust the
volume of the signal coming into the computer through the
FireWire/USB connection for each channel. When in link mode,
a single fader will control 2 channels simultaneously.
6. Level Meter
These two parts of the PC-based mixer give users an idea of the
input levels received through the FireWire/USB interface. The
graphic bar will give visual representation of the level and users
are able to read the exact input level in decibels underneath the
fader.
7. Channel Status (digital channels only)
This display window will show whether a digital device is
connected to or disconnected from the Firefly unit. The status
will be updated automatically when a digital device is connected
to the correct inputs.

sent through the FireWire/USB interface. The graphic bar will
give visual representation of the level and users are able to read
the exact input level in decibels underneath the fader.
