Expand/collapse Expands the track to show more controls, or collapses the track to only show
the header bar.
Edit Filter Specify which data type the global tools should operate on.
Vol (volume) The current volume level for the track, ranging from -INF (silent) to +6 dB
(maximum volume).
Pan The stereo distribution of the output, ranging from 100% left (hard left) to 100%
right (hard right); a value of “C” indicates sound that is centered left-to-right. On
stereo tracks, pan acts as balance.
Trim (volume trim) (Track
Inspector and Console view
only)
Volume Trim is a pre-fader control which allows the fine tuning of a single
track’s volume.
For example, let’s say you have four tracks, three tracks have their volume
fader set to 0 dB while the fourth track’s fader is set to +10 dB. You want to
group the faders and do a slow fade out, but the slightly higher level of the
fourth track causes its volume to be higher in relation to the other tracks
towards the end of the fade out. To balance the fader levels, reduce the fader
level for the fourth track to 0 dB and raise the Volume Trim value for that track to
+10 dB. The resulting volume levels for the project are the same, but now you
can group the faders and perform a fade out with no track standing out
disproportionately at the end of the fade out.
Input The input source for the track, used in recording
Output The output bus through which the track is played
Send Enable (Track
Inspector and Console view
only)
Activates a send module, which sends a copy of the track signal to a bus.
