Input label Notes
• To identify the hardware input when an input name is customized, click the input
label. The hardware input name appears at the top of the popover window.
• Custom input labels are a global function; they are not stored in Console session files.
• Auxiliary return labels cannot be customized.
• Custom input labels are visible within Console only.
Tip: Driver I/O labels, which are displayed within a DAW, can be customized sepa-
rately in the Core Audio panel within the Console Settings window.
Show/Hide Inputs
Console can hide any input channel strip from view. This feature reduces the need for
horizontal scrolling and/or simply reduces visual distractions when there is no need to
see or manipulate a particular input.
How To Use Show/Hide Inputs
1. Either choose “Show/Hide Inputs” from the View Menu, use the keyboard shortcut
(
⌘
I), or right-click (control-click) the Input Label Menu. Modifier icons appear on
all Input Labels (see the Modifiers Overview for related details).
2. Click or swipe across the Input Labels. The modifier toggles between green and
gray. The input will be shown when its modifier is green, and hidden when gray.
3. Click the DONE switch in the View Column. The inputs with gray modifiers are
hidden. To bring hidden inputs back into view, repeat the procudure.
Show/Hide Input Notes:
• A minimum of one input channel must be shown.
• All input channels remain active even if they are hidden from view.
• The Show Aux Returns switch is available to show/hide the aux return strips.
