Using Manual mode

Manual mode is straightforward to operate and is best suited for events where precise synchronization between audio and visual elements is not required.
​

Configure audio for Manual Mode in the Console

  1. Select Manual as your sync method.

Trigger audio in the Desktop App

Since Manual Mode does not use a synchronization protocol, playback depends on manually starting audio tracks to align with your visual presentation. This provides flexibility and direct control over the audio content.

  1. Start the Desktop App:

    1. Start the Desktop App and log in using the credentials provided by Pladia.

    2. Manual mode requires no special hardware or setup. Simply ensure that a team member is available to manage audio playback using the Desktop App.
      ​

  2. Control playback:

    1. Choose the appropriate audio track from the Select a track dropdown menu. Changing the selection during playback will interrupt the current track.

    2. Play: Begin audio playback manually.

    3. Restart: Restart tracks as needed to maintain alignment with your visual presentation.
