Smart Presets - subwoofer *toggle*

[574stereo]

Hey WiiM, playing around with Smart Presets more and more at the moment. I currently only have 2x WiiM devices (Ultra + Mini alongside a non-WiiM Audio Pro) in the house but I've helped friends set up systems with more devices. So far everyone is very happy (as am I) but a few areas which IMO could be improved are showing up...


Rather than say, preset 1 to switch the subwoofer *on* and preset 2 to switch the subwoofer *off*, would it be possible to have a single preset which toggles between two different audio states? For example...

State 1 = Subwoofer Off, No EQ
State 2 = Subwoofer On, EQ preset 2

The WiiM is capable of making chiming sounds etc for audio feedback, a tone could be played when this change happens too...


Just a thought. I have some other suggestions too but will post these on separate threads.

Tbh, that sounds as if it would be clumsy to implement and would over complicate the interface.

Yes. Better to have more than the current 12 Presets then.

And allow the remote to access more than 4.

Really? At the moment there's just a slider which forces the sub to be on or off, you could just have a second option which says 'toggle'. Should be a very easy function to implement.


IMO far more confusing is having a load of presets on the remote which are unlabelled and having to remember which is which...

For me the issue is that you’re not just toggling an individual setting, but toggling between two states that have more than one attribute I.e sub on or off AND an EQ on or off with a particular setting.

The EQ setting was a secondary thought. How that could be implemented was overall 'sound presets states'.

Without needing to complicate things however, a simple 'toggle subwoofer state' setting would be a very simple adjustment to what's on offer at the moment. Especially seeing as the WiiM remote only has 4 preset buttons.
