To mute or solo a bus
Each bus has a Mute button and a Solo button. These controls act like the Mute and Solo buttons
in a track, but they affect all the signal routed through the bus.
1. Open the Track view, Track Inspector or Console view.
2. Click the Mute or Solo button in the bus you want to mute or solo.
To display the audio waveform of a bus
• Enable the bus’ Waveform Preview button . This displays the waveform of the audio that is
flowing through the bus.
Main outs
Each enabled hardware channel has a main out channel strip in the Console view. Main outs are the
final destination for all of your audio in SONAR. Main outs accept input from both tracks and buses.
Main outs contain both a left channel and a right channel Volume fader, which allows you to adjust
the level of each channel independently. You can link the two faders to move them as a group.
