Sound menu - easy access?

Hi All.

New to this group as just purchased my RDX A-Spec. Loving it so far.

My previous 2017 RDX had a menu button that allowed access to the sound menu - was easy to adjust base/treble etc.

Anyone know is there is a shortcut or way to easily access the sound menu, especially when in Carplay?
Right now, it appears that I have to go to home screen, system, sound ..................

Cheers.

Open the "currently playing" device in the main screen. In the image below, it is Sirius XM that is playing. Click on the "menu" button at the top of the screen, and select "Sound Settings". This works for the FM, AM, Sirius, and Bluetooth modes. For the USB and AUX modes, simply select sound from the main screen.

Thanks all.

Not too bad to access through some apps but when in Carplay, looks like you have to go to home menu and take a few crazy steps.

Pity you can't add a shortcut to the home screen....but it is what it is.

Cheers.

It's crazy that the number of steps to change from miles to kilometers are fewer than getting to the sound menu.

Play music on the main screen, and the sound menu appears in the upper right.

the worst is if you wanna turn the display off you have to go through several menus, most cars have this as an option with a single button press, including my wife’s Honda CR-V

Unfortunately, when you use Carplay, this option isn't available. Wish there was an easy way to access that menu when in Carplay

Not a biggie though......this car rocks!!
