3:5 Mixer channel controls and indicators
Controls/indicators in Regular and
FX/Sends views
Label strip and coloured tab
The label strip allows you to name each channel. Double-click
the label strip to edit its contents, and press ENTER when
you’re done.
We recommend that you keep names short, as only a small
number of characters are visible on the strip!
Just above the label strip is a coloured tab. The colours are
helpful when viewing the mixer as they indicate the channel
type and status.
Fader
The fader sets the gain of the channel.
Pan
For kit-piece channels, a pan control exists on the primary
direct channel, which allows you to set the pan position of all
the kit-piece’s direct mic channels. This control is duplicated in
the Kit page slot windows as well as in the kit-piece inspector
(available on the Kit page and in the Mixer page Utility panel).
If you set an aux channel to mono operation, a pan control
appears on the channel.
The pan control is only applied when a channel’s output
is routed to a stereo destination output or aux channel. If
the channel is routed to a mono output destination, pan is
ignored.
Meter
The meter provides a visual guide of the channel’s level. It
includes momentary peak level indicators as well as red clip
indicators – click these to clear their status.
