Mixer 165
FX: Opens the effects/routing dialog for editing and configuring any number of effects
chains. This specifies the sequence of the effects. More information can be found in
the chapter "Effects and effects plug-ins > Sequence of effects calculations".
Mix to File/On: The buttons "Mix to File" and "On" can be used to mix down in real
time and to change any parameters of your mix during playback. At the end of
playback, the created mixdown is written to a wave file.
1. Clicking the "Mix to file" button opens a dialog to specify the name and place
where the created wave file should be saved. When the "On" button is active,
the master output of the mixer can be written to a wave file during playback.
2. Now start playback of the VIP.
3. On playback, any parameter may be changed in order to record any live
adjustments that are made.
4. At the end, stop the playback of the VIP.
Important: Make sure that the "On" button is deactivated if you do not wish to mix
the master signal again. Otherwise, the system creates a wave file every time the file
is played.
The "Mix to file" function does not necessarily need to be used to record dynamic
mixer movements during playback. Effects may be controlled via AUX busses, and
volume and panorama curves may be automated.
Device / Master out: Enter the playback device for the entire signal here; this can also
be set in the system/options dialog under "Audio devices".
Global settings
Some additional buttons for adjusting the global settings of the mixer window and
mixer handling can be found at the right side of the mixer window.
This includes (clockwise from bottom left):
Start track: If the VIP has many tracks, then only a section of the corresponding mixer
channels is generally displayed in the mixer window. The visible section can be moved
using the scroll bar at the bottom of the mixer.
Hold “Shift” down and click on one of the “Start track” buttons to save the current
view (a left click is sufficient the first time).
You can recall the previously saved section by clicking again on the “Start track”
button.
Preset: By clicking on the preset menu you can select various mixer setups.
