Harrison Labs MIXBUS V2.0.2 - Manual (Page 10)

you have created some track templates, the templates will appear as additional choices in the “Channel
Configuration” menu.
Mixbus also allows the creation of busses which may be used to combine tracks together into groups for further pro-
cessing or utilitarian tasks such as headphone cue feeds. Busses do not have the processing or delay compensa-
tion features of the Harrison Mix Bus Channels. In general, the built-in Mixbus summing engine is sufficient for most
bussing needs. But if your project is large enough to need additional bussing, they are available here.
The “Tape” track mode creates tracks which may not be edited, and in which the underlying file is overwritten with
new data when recorded into (i.e. destructive recording). (NOTE: due to the underlying file system, this feature is
not available on Windows)

nation. Unlimited. Unhaltered. Uninhibited by the bounds of technical obstructions. YOU BECOME THE

ter. You are the ultimate conductor in the universe of recorded music" - Harrison 4032 brochure, circa 1975
