The Editing Area
You can open the Mixer, Sample Editor, Piano Roll Editor, Score Editor, and Hyper Editor
directly in the Arrange window by clicking the corresponding button at the bottom of
the Arrange window. Here’s a brief overview of what each window offers.
Getting to Know the Mixer
The Mixer is where you mix your project. Each track is played back through a channel
strip. You can adjust the level and pan position of a channel strip, add effects, mute and
solo tracks, and send the output of a channel strip to other channel strip types, such as
output and auxilliary channels.
 Channel strips: Use the channel strip controls to adjust the level and other aspects of
the audio signal played through the channel strip.
 View buttons: Switch the Mixer between the Single, Arrange, and All Mixer views,
limiting the Mixer view to channel strips required for the task at hand.
 Filter buttons: Filter the display of specific channel strip types.
Full details can be found in Chapter 25, “ Mixing ,” on page 541.
