Adjusting Pan Position
Tracks and busses also include a pan slider. The pan slider controls the pan position (the
left-to-right placement in the stereo field) of the track.
To adjust the pan position of a track or bus:
m Drag the pan slider left or right.
The range is –100 (full left) to +100 (full right), with the default at 0 (center position).
Double-clicking the slider resets it to the center position.
Muting and Soloing Tracks, Busses, and Outputs
The Mute button mutes (silences) the track, bus, or output. You can mute multiple
tracks, busses, and outputs, allowing you to hear only the remaining, unmuted ones.
Muting lets you compare the sound of the project using different combinations of
tracks, busses, and outputs, and hearing the result of changes you make to them.
To mute a track, bus, or output:
m Click the Mute button. Click the Mute button again to unmute the track, bus, or output.
Muted tracks, busses, and outputs appear darker in the Timeline, making it easy to
identify which tracks are currently audible.
The Solo button solos the track, bus, or output, muting all others. Soloing a track, bus,
or output lets you quickly isolate it from the rest of the project, so you can adjust the
sound of the soloed track, bus, or output and make changes.
Soundtrack supports multiple solo and exclusive solo. Clicking the Solo button for multiple
tracks, busses, or outputs solos them and mutes all others. When you exclusively solo a
track, bus, or output, all others are muted, regardless of whether they are soloed.
Drag the pan slider
left or right.
Click the Mute button to mute
the track, bus, or output.
