System Settings
The System Settings dialog contains device-level preferences. To open it, click the gear icon in the top-right corner of any page and select System.

MIDI CC Trigger Mode
An expandable panel with a toggle to enable or disable CC-based clip triggering. When enabled, MIDI CC #110 can trigger video and lighting clips as an alternative to MIDI notes.
This is useful for controllers that send CC messages but not note messages.
For full details on how CC triggering works, clip mapping, and important usage warnings, see the dedicated MIDI CC Trigger Mode page.
Beta Features
A link at the bottom of System Settings opens the Beta Features dialog, where you can enable experimental features like Effects Mode.
Beta features are experimental and may change in future updates. When the Enable Beta Features toggle is on, additional options become available elsewhere in the UI (for example, "Effects" appears in the Video Mode dropdown on the Videos page).
Status Display Views
The front-panel color Status Display switches automatically between three views based on activity:
HOME View (Default)
Shown at idle and on startup. Displays connection status for all interfaces:
HDMI
Resolution and connected device name
ETH
IP address and subnet mask
WIFI
IP address and SSID
MVP VERSION
Current firmware version
Disconnected interfaces show "NOT CONNECTED." If an MVP update is available, a pulsing green banner appears at the bottom.
A scrolling ticker along the bottom edge continuously displays connection details for HDMI, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and MIDI devices.
LIVE MIDI View
Appears automatically when a MIDI note, CC trigger, or keyboard trigger is received. Shows two side-by-side boxes:
VIDEO
Teal
Trigger info for the video channel
LIGHTING
Purple
Trigger info for the lighting channel
Each box adapts its display based on the trigger source:
MIDI Note: Shows the note name (e.g., "C3") and note number
MIDI CC (CC Trigger Mode): Shows the CC value and "MIDI CC" label
USB Keyboard: Shows the key label (e.g., "Q") and "KEYBOARD" label
Below the trigger boxes, playback rows show the currently playing filename and playback position for both Video and Lighting. An animated gradient stripe indicates active playback.
LIVE TC (Timecode) View
Appears automatically when timecode is received. Displays a large timecode clock in HH:MM:SS:FF format with the active configuration slot name above it. Below the timecode, playback rows show currently playing files.
The FPS label below the timecode shows the source type and frame rate (e.g., "LTC 30fps"). It turns red if a frame rate mismatch is detected, and displays "No Signal" when timecode stops.
Display Timeout
After 2 minutes of inactivity (no MIDI, playback, or timecode), the display automatically returns to the HOME view.
