overall mix.

To rename a channel strip:

m

Click the channel strip’s name (at the top of the channel strip) to select it, then type a
new name.

Changing a Channel Strip Icon

You can change the icon of a channel strip. Icons do not affect the sound, but are
useful as a quick visual reference for the channel strip, particularly for projects with
many tracks, busses, or submixes.

m

Double-click the icon you want to change, then choose a new icon from the icon menu.

Showing and Hiding Sections of the Mixer

with a large number of tracks, busses, or submixes.

You can show or hide any of the following sections of the Mixer:

 Audio tracks
 Busses
