Send Bus Faders
Send Busses are a special type of standard fader specifically used for effect editing.
In the software user interface, Send Bus Faders can be identified by their greenish
color and their (non-editable) name (Send FX1, Send FX2, etc.).
Send Bus Faders are not assigned to Timeline Tracks but instead get their signals
from one or more fader unit(s) or mixer channel(s).
The effect signal is then routed to an output bus and thus inserted in the master
signal.
For a full description, see the section on “Working with Insert Effects, Send Effects
and Busses” on page 852.
Faders for Logical Output Busses
A fader is inserted for every Logical Output Bus you define. These faders serve to
determine the level at which the audio signals are routed to the particular output
bus. The bus fader’s peak meter indicates the number and level of the audio
signals: Two for Stereo, four for Classic and six for Surround. Output bus faders
are red.
See also “Output Mapping: Assigning Signals” on page 839.
Rubberbanding
The term “rubberbanding” is used to describe the action of moving and adjusting Volume Lines, Pan
Lines and setting Key Frames on volume and pan lines directly on the clip.
You can do this using the mouse or the fader units.
Setting Key Frames
In Audio Timeline editing Key Frames refer to the small blue diamonds on the Vol um e / Pa n Li n e s used for
adjusting an audio clip’s volume level or the pan orientation. In order to “bend” an otherwise straight
volume line, it is necessary to set Key Frames.
