Mixing Multitrack Sessions

Using the Track Properties window

In the Track Properties window, you can adjust several settings for the selected track,
including volume, pan, output device, and bit depth. Though you can quickly access most
of these options in the track controls, the Track Properties window offers channel and bit
depth menus, and visual sliders for volume and pan.

To use the Track Properties window:

1

Select the track, and then choose Window > Track Properties.

2

Set the desired options.

For more information, search for “Track Properties options” in Help.

Setting track name, volume, and pan

In the track controls, you can name tracks to identify their contents (for example,
“Drums”). You can also specify volume and pan settings.

To change track volume and pan over time, use track envelopes. (See “Automating
mixes with clip envelopes” on page 188.)

To name a track:

In the track controls, type in the name text box.

Name text box in the track controls

To change track volume or pan:

In the Volume (V) or Pan text box of the track controls, drag to scroll through values.

To change these settings with a slider, right-click the Volume or Pan text box.
