Chapter 9 Mixing the Project
143
As projects grow large and more complex, you may nd it useful to temporarily limit
the number of channel strips displayed to those you need to focus on for a given task.
You have the possibility to switch the Mixer between three dierent views—Single,
Arrange, and All. You can also determine which channel strips are displayed using the
lter buttons.
Getting Ready
Open the Mixer area in the demo project:
Open The Numbers Game” demo project.1
Click the Mixer button at the bottom of the Arrange area (or press the X key).2
Try This
Customize the Mixer view using the lter buttons:
Deactivate all lter buttons except for the Inst button. Only instrument channel strips
are now visible in the Mixer area.
Activate the Audio button and deactivate the Inst button. Only audio channel strips are
now visible in the Mixer area.
Customize the Mixer using the view buttons:
Select the channel strip Chuck Vox 1, then click the Single button. Single view limits
the Mixer display to a single channel strip—that of the track selected in the Arrange
area—and its signal ow.
Click the Arrange button. In Arrange view, the Mixer displays all channel strips that
correspond to tracks used in the Arrange window and their signal ow. In this case,
your settings from when you last activated the Audio button, and deactivated all
others, are still intact. The settings are saved with the view.
