Stereo Objects
All the types of audio objects (Track, Input, and Output)
may be used configured as stereo.
Audio sequences on the tracks of stereo objects are always
dealt with together, no matter what the operation being
performed. If you open the Sample Edit window, both
sides of the stereo pair are shown there, and processed to-
gether.
Creating Stereo Objects: To do this, select the object
named “Audio 1” (click on its name, at the bottom). Click
on the Mono symbol, at the bottom left of the object, next
to the REC button.
The button will now show two interlinked circles, indicat-
ing that it is now a stereo object.
If you click-hold on this button, you will see a flip-menu,
giving you four choices:
Mono Sets the track to play mono files.
Stereo Sets the track to play stereo files.
The Effects: Whatever parameters you adjust for stereo ob-
jects, the changes affect both sides equally. The pan con-
trol becomes a balance control.
Stereo objects have their own set of parameters for setting
level, balance, aux send and EQ. As a result, you can toggle
between stereo and mono object types without losing the
parameters for each type.
Any combination of stereo and mono recordings is per-
mitted. you can set tracks 1 and 2 each to stereo, and use
tracks 3 and 4 for mono recording s, if you wish.
Automation
On a mixing desk, Automation is the ability to record the
changes to the levels of the various audio channels over
time, and then recall and reproduce these changes auto-
matically when mixing.
“Full” automation allows you to recall the adjustments to
all of the parameters on a desk, such as the pan and EQ
settings, as well as all the channel levels.
Naturally, the “virtual” mixing desk of MAGIX midi stu-
dio generation 6 is fully automated. This includes all but-
tons, fader and knob movements.
Fader movements—just as with MIDI events—are re-
corded on a track. This track will consist of a sequence
with corresponding MIDI events from the respective fader
