Figure 11.41: Sends Mixer Window
The Sends Mixer window shows the all the send strips for currently selected bus. Send strips are more limited
than full input strips. Each Send Strip has a panner (if appropriate for the bus width and send width), phase
invert, solo, mute and pre/post fader buttons, as well as a send level fader and level meter. All of the elements
common with the full input strips function in the same way as the elements in the full strip.
The control element that is unique to the send strip is the Pre/Post Fader button (the button labeled “Pre” in the
illustration above). When this button is not illuminated, the send functions “Post Fader” relative to the mixer
fader for the strip that the send is inserted on. This means that the level of the signal will be adjusted by the
input channel strip’s level fader. This is default state of the Pre/Post Fader button. Since the signal is actually
routed from wherever the send is inserted, the “Post Fader” state does not control the routing of the send, but
rather the level; the total send level will be the sum of the source fader level and the send fader level. When
you have selected “Post Fader” mode for the send, the send will also respect the mute and solo state of the
strip that the send is inserted on.
In "Pre-fader" mode, only the send level fader controls the level of the signal to the send destination. Also,
the send does not take the mute or solo state of the strip into account when sending the signal to the send
destination. When "Pre-fader" mode has been selected, the button will be illuminated in lavender.
If you have set a custom color for an input in the main Mixer window, that input's channel in the Send window
will be the same color for easy identification.
I/O insert
The I/O or "Input/Output insert is used to route signals out of the mixer strip and back in at the insert slot.
Signals may be routed to any available analog or digital connection, as well as DAW and FW channels.
