Setting the Basic Project Playback Level
You can set the basic project playback level by dragging the Master Level slider found
at the right of the Transport bar (if your display is of a sufficient width). This slider is
directly tied to the Master channel in the Mixer, and acts as a master level control for all
audio and software instrument tracks.
Important: This slider not only sets the playback level of your project, but also affects
the overall level of your mix.
Click the speaker symbol to the right of the Master Level slider to set the master slider
to 0 dB.
Click the speaker symbol to the left of the Master Level slider to turn on Dim Level
mode: This sets the playback volume to the Dim Level value set in the Logic Express >
Audio > General preferences.
Click the button again to deactivate Dim Level mode, and set the playback level to the
current Master Level slider value.
