The XMP44 contains a variation of control and configuration possibilities. The front panel of
the unit is fitted with a 2.8” graphical display unit, allowing instant control and configuration
possibilities through an intuitive and user friendly user interface.
Besides, its functions can be remotely controlled through the embedded web-control
interface. This fully adaptive interface based on HTML5 technology can be accessed from
any websocket supporting device, offering cross-platform compatibility with Windows, Mac
OS, Linux, Android and iOS without requiring any installed applications or web plugins. The
fully adaptive structure guarantees a clear viewing on all different kinds of screen sizes.
When application specific or total system control is required, the XMP44 can be controlled
using the Audac Touch™ application. This application allows to custom configure your control

the connected ethernet LAN network (subnetmask 255.255.255.0). If the default network
address is not within range of your LAN network, it can be changed in the settings menu,
using the front panel interface.
Front panel control
The front panel controllable functions are strongly depending of the installed module and
its functionalities. Therefore, it is not possible to describe the menu structure possibilities
for each individual module in detail. An overview of how the entire menu is constructed and
how to navigate through it is given here.
The front panel of the device includes a 2.8” graphical LCD display, which is accompanied with
four tactile push buttons (left side) and a rotary selection dial (right side). This combination
allows you to navigate through the systems user interface and access all the available control
and configuration possibilities of the system.
The functionality of the four tactile push buttons on the left side depends on the current mode
and position in the menu structure. In the main menu, these buttons will be linked with four
different module slots allowing to enter their specific menu and offering access to its further
functions. In the control menu’s (not configuration) there will always be 4 icons shown on
the left side of the display which functionalities are linked with the corresponsing buttons.
The rotary selection dial can be used for parameter adjustments and browsing to station lists,
playlists or any other. This multifunctional dial allows easy one-hand operation throughout the
entire menu structure. Browsing is done by rotating it while actions are made by pressing it.
