Apollo Software Manual Chapter 3: Console Application 39
Channel Fader
This is the channel’s main signal level control for the Console monitor
mix. It always affects the channel’s level in the monitor mix bus (the
monitor outputs) and both aux mix buses (the aux outputs), but not the
headphone (Apollo) or cue (Apollo 16) mix buses. Changes to this control
are reflected in the channels level meter.
Fader Scale
The numerical labels represent the amount of attenuation applied by the
fader. A value of “0” represents 0 db of attenuation.
Fader Level Hover
If the mouse is hovered over the fader “handle” its
current decibel value is displayed in a pop-up window.
Copy Mix Menu
All channel fader values for all inputs (the entire monitor mix) can be
copied simultaneously to any send bus.
To copy the monitor mix to a send bus, right-click (or Ctrl-click) the channel fader to
display the copy mix menu, then select a destination bus for the mix.

Caution: The Copy Mix function will overwrite the entire mix of the destination bus
(all send level settings for all inputs on the destination bus will be lost).
Input Meter
The Input Meter displays the signal level of the channel after UAD plug-in processing in
the inserts. Depending on the state of the View Menu (post-fader or pre-fader), this meter
will display the level going into the monitor mix bus (post-fader/post-inserts), or the level
at the channel’s hardware input (pre-fader/post inserts).
Tip: When recording into a DAW, it’s generally better to keep the Input Meters set
to pre-fader so they accurately represents the signal level being sent to the DAW.
