the meter) will light and remain lit. You can reset the de-
tector by clicking anywhere on the meter.
Adjusting the level: The fader on each track object sets
its playback level. The recording level is not set in MAGIX
midi studio generation 6, but at the source supplying the
signal. You cannot adjust the level on the digital input.
MAGIX midi studio generation 6’s fader shown here is
used to control the monitor level.
The level reading of the audio objects and the aux sends
can be shown in decibels (dB) or MIDI controller values.
To change the scale, select the appropriate object and alter
the “Val as” parameter. A MIDI volume of 90 is equiva-
lent to 0 dB.
The maximum boost is +6 dB. You can reset the volume
fader to 0dB (90) by ctrl-clicking.
During Recording: An independent monitoring level is
available if a Track object is record enabled. When the ob-
ject is again disarmed, the original level will be restored.
Routing
Mute control: You can mute any audio object by press-
ing the button marked “M”. Pressing the button again re-
stores the previous level.
Pan/Balance: Mono objects feature a Pan control which
determines the position of a signal in the stereo image.
Stereo objects, on the other hand, possess Balance con-
trols. The balance control differs from the pan control in
that the former controls the relative levels of two signals
(L/R) at their outputs. The latter merely shares one signal
proportionally between two outputs.
You can reset the pan control to center (64) with a ctrl-
click.
Track arming: The Rec control (see right) “arms” a track,
making it ready for recording. Once the track has been
armed, the control flashes red. During actual recording, it
remains lit red all the time.
If the control is flashing but gray-red in color, no audio
track has been selected in the Arrange window. No record-
ing can take place.
Rec controls only exist for Track objects. Please note that
the number of Track objects which can be armed at the
same time, is limited to the number of tracks which your
audio hardware can record simultaneously.
