Region Gain

Every region in Mixbus has a level control (called Region Gain in some menus) that applies to the whole region. The
Region’s level can be modified by the Region menu, or from the right-click context menu:

• Increase/Decrease Region Gain (Increase is limited to +10dB)
• Reset Region Gain to Unity
• Normalize (Raises or lowers gain so that the highest value in the region is 0dBFS, limited to +10dB max gain)

The Normalize entry will say "Denormalize" if the region is already normalized. This will return the region gain to
unity.

Mixbus User Guide

Note: If you normalize a region, it will raise the region gain so that
the waveform shown in the region reaches 0dBFS. If the region is

extended to represent more of the underlying audio file, this audio may
reach above 0dBFS.

Tip: Simply point the mouse at the
region and use the gain up/down

key to quickly adjust region gain. You
can also select multiple regions at once
and then use the region gain key com-
mands to raise or lower all the regions
simultaneously.

Note: Mixbus has 5 built-in gain stages in a track: Region Gain,
Region Envelope, Input Trim, Fader, and Makeup Gain (when com-

pressor is enabled). Each gain stage serves an important purpose, and the
combination of these stages makes it easy and fun to mix in Mixbus.
