Figure 250. Instrument track strip
Instrument track controls
Because an instrument track is a hybrid between an audio and a MIDI track, an instrument track strip
contains both audio and MIDI controls.
The instrument track strip exposes MIDI input and audio output controls. Internally, the MIDI output
is assigned to the soft synth’s MIDI input, and the audio input is assigned to the soft synth’s main
output.
The following table shows all controls that are availalbe on an instrument track, and indicates if a
control applies to audio or MIDI data.
