598 Chapter 25 Mixing
Moving to Particular Types of Channel Strips
You can choose one of the commands in the View > Scroll To menu to scroll the Mixer
display to the selected channel type, when multiple channel types are visible. This
feature is handy when your Mixer view contains dozens, or hundreds, of channel strips.
To move to specific channel strip types:
m Choose the desired command in the View > Scroll To menu (Outputs, for example).
The entire Mixer view will be shifted, to display the first of these channels at the right of
the visible Mixer window area.
Customizing the Mixer
The Mixer offers the Single, Arrange, and All Mixer views. You can use these views to
restrict the display to channel strips that you actually need for the current mixing task.
This accelerates and simplifies your workflow.
The Arrange and All views can work in conjunction with the channel strip filter buttons,
allowing you to filter specific channel strip types. You can use different filter button
settings for both views.
Working With Single, Arrange, and All View
You can use the Single, Arrange, and All buttons in the Mixer’s menu bar (or the Cycle
Through Mixer Modes (Single, Arrange, All) key command) to switch the Mixer between
the views:
 Single View: The Mixer display is limited to the selected arrange track, and its signal
flow—if the Add Signal Flow Channel Strips setting in the View menu is active.
 Arrange view: Displays all channel strips that correspond to tracks (audio, instrument,
or external MIDI) used in the Arrange window—and their signal flow. The signal flow
channel strips are only displayed if the View menu’s Add Signal Flow Channel Strip
setting is active.
 All View: The Mixer displays all MIDI instruments and all audio channel strips that
exist in your project.
