Get started with mixing

Mixing a project involves balancing the different parts of the project and blending them into a
cohesive whole.

In the Mixer, each track has a channel strip that corresponds to its track type. You can control
the sound of the track using its channel strip controls, which include Mute and Solo buttons, a
Volume fader and level meter, a Pan/Balance knob, and others. You can also add effects plug-
ins, change plug-in settings, and control the signal flow using sends and auxiliary (aux) channel
strips.

The channel strip for the currently selected track also appears in the lower-left part of the
inspector, along with the channel strip for its output. You can try out the following tasks using
either the inspector channel strips or the channel strips in the Mixer.
