Ganging and Adjusting Multiple Tracks
You can gang multiple tracks in the Audio Mix tool to maintain the
same relative settings between tracks when you make adjustments.
This is useful in a variety of circumstances. For example, you can gang
tracks to raise the overall volume of a portion of a sequence while
maintaining variations in level adjustment among tracks.
To gang and adjust multiple tracks:
1. Click the Gang button in the required panels. Click the button a
second time to deselect it.
2. Adjust either volume or pan for one of the tracks by using any of
the techniques described in the previous section, and the other
tracks will maintain the same relative levels.
When you gang two or more panels, you gang both the Volume and
Pan sliders.
To set all ganged sliders to the same value:
• For volume, click the number along the vertical edge of the
Volume slider or type a value in one of the Volume Level displays.
• For pan, click the Pan Value display and type a value.
Ignoring Existing Volume and Pan Settings
You can have the Avid NewsCutter XP system ignore the volume
settings established with the Audio Mix tool when you play back or
perform a digital cut. You can also deactivate the pan settings by
choosing Mono or Direct Out from the Output Options pop-up menu.
To turn off current volume adjustments, select Ignore Volume next to
the Output Options pop-up menu at the top of the Audio Mix tool.
