Remote control

Using the remote

The infrared remote control provided with the ADept controls all key runtime functions.

Stock miniDSP remote control

The Standby button icon on the miniDSP remote control
Standby

Put the ADept into standby and take it out again.

The Mute button icon on the miniDSP remote control
Mute

Mute and unmute audio output.

The Volume buttons on the miniDSP remote control

Volume

Reduce or increase the output volume. The rightmost row of LEDs lights up to provide an approximate +indication of the current volume. Each button press changes the volume by 1 dB.

These buttons are also used to navigate the front panel settings – see the Media control buttons below.

The Media back, play/pause and forward buttons on the miniDSP remote control
Media control
The Media control buttons, together with the volume control buttons, can be used to navigate the settings. To begin, press the Play/pause button. One of the currently selected LEDs will blink. Use the left/right/+/– buttons to move this flashing LED around the front panel. When you are at the setting that you want to change to, press Play/pause again to activate it.

The Dirac Live button on the miniDSP remote control

Equalization select

Cycles through the Equalization settings. (On other processors, this button turns Dirac Live on and off, hence the icon.)

The source cycling button on the miniDSP remote control

Source selection

Cycles through the four input sources: Moving Coil, Moving Magnet, RCA (line-level), XLR.

A preset selection button on the miniDSP remote control

Preset (1 through 4)

Switch to the selected preset.

Volume steps

Each press of the remote control's volume buttons reduces or increase the output volume by 1 dB.

The LED indicator column provides a coarse indication of volume, as follows:

Bottom LED 5th 4th 3rd 2nd Top LED
-62 dB and lower -61 to -48 dB -47 to -34 dB -33 to -10 dB -19 to -6 dB -5 dB and above

Disabling the remote

The infrared remote can be disabled with the procedure below. This is for user convenience when using the ADept with another miniDSP processor.

To disable the remote:

  1. Press and hold down the encoder button.
  2. Wait for ten seconds until the currently-lit front panel LEDs briefly flash off, then turn on again.
  3. Release the encoder button.

From then on, the front LEDs will flash off and on again when the ADept detects a command from the remote, but the command will be ignored.

To enable the remote again, repeat the above procedure.
