+The Zynthian has 4 user interfaces:
-Currently there are two screen layouts:
+. [[Zynthian UI Users Guide]]: The Hardware UI.
-# '''Selector Screen''': a list of items that you can scroll and select with the SELECT(4) knob
+. [[Configuration Users Guide]]: Web configuration tool.
-# '''Controller Screen''': In the corners, 4 control widgets (one for each knob), with label and value indicator (graphic and numeric). In the middle, a list of controller maps which you can use to change or rotate using the SELECT(4) knob.
-And there are 3 types of clicks (push) that can be performed, depending on how long you hold down the knob:
+. [[MOD Users Guide]]: Web UI for LV2 plugin host.
-* '''short:''' less than 0.3 seconds
-* '''bold:''' between 0.3 and 2 seconds
-* '''long:''' more than 2 seconds
-Actions for each knob and click type are context dependent. Generally, the SELECT knob and a short click is used to navigate and select items on a "Selector Screen". On a "Controller Screen", short clicks can be used to rotate between channels (CH) or between controller maps (SELECT). "Bold" clicks are intended as shortcuts for jumping to some specific screens. Clicking the BACK knob generally jumps to the previous screen in the sequence. For a detailed description, see the next flowcharts:
