The gain range for each channel is from -
∞
(muted) to +10 dB. The resolution
of the gain control is extremely fine and gain changes are interpolated in the
mixer, so there is no zipper noise when you make continuous (or even dis-
continuous) gain changes.
ments to the fader level by dragging the mouse up and down.
For mono channels, the current gain is applied to the channel before the
pan. For stereo channels, the current gain is applied uniformly to both of the
hard-panned input channels.

ETERS
Each channel fader has a meter (or a pair of meters for stereo channels) asso-
ciated with it. The meters are calibrated consistently with the fader calibra-
tion. Each meter is a peak reading, fast-PPM meter that is pre-fader. The peak
hold bar shows the biggest peak since the last reset. Clicking on a meter will
clear the peak holds for that channel.

Each mono input in a stereo mixer has a pan knob above the fader. The pan
knob allows you to control the relative amount of the input channel that is
placed into the two busses of the stereo mixer. Panning hard left (L100)
means that the channel will appear at full volume in the left (odd) bus of the
mixer. Panning hard right (R100) means that the channel will appear at full
volume in the right (even) bus of the mixer. When the channel is center
panned, the signal appears at a decreased volume (-3dB) in both channels,
such that the volume of the total signal in both channels is equivalent to full
volume in one channel. As you pan from left to right, the signal is distributed
between the two channels so that the total volume remains constant.
As with the channel fader, the black window above the channel pan knob
provides a precise readout of the current pan position, and clicking on the
black window will allow you to type in an exact pan amount. Negative
numbers (-100 to 0) indicate left pans and positive numbers (0 to 100) indi-
cate right pans. 0 is center pan.
