System information
Adjusting bus send levels
When the Sends control region is visible, each bus displays controls you can use to route the bus to
assignable effects chains or to busses that are routed to hardware outputs. A bus cannot send to a bus that
is directly or indirectly routed to the Master bus.
To show or hide the Sends control region, click the Sends button in the View Controls pane.
When the Automation Settings button in the Faders control region is not selected, click the Channel
Send button and choose a bus or assignable effects chain from the menu, and then drag the fader to
adjust the send level.
When the Automation Settings button in the Faders control region is selected, the fader handle is
displayed as a , and you can use it to edit send volume automation on the bus track.
The trim level is added to the automation settings so your envelope is preserved, but with a boost or
cut applied. For example, setting the trim control to -3 dB has the same effect as decreasing every
envelope point by 3 dB.
To adjust the size of the Sends control region, you can drag the bottom divider to make more or fewer
sends visible.
Bus sends are post-volume (and post-mute) by default. To change to pre-volume (and pre-mute), click the
Pre/Post button to switch to Pre-Volume Send mode.
Changing a bus's output device
