Pan Indicator
The Pan indicator displays the current pan setting
of a track. Pan values range from <100 (full left) to
100> (full right). Pan controls are only available
for stereo tracks or for mono tracks routed to a ste-
reo output.
In I/O view (Edit window), click the Pan indicator
to display the Pan pop-up slider, which can be used
to adjust panning.
Pan Slider
The Pan slider controls the balance of a track be-
tween the assigned output pair. It only appears if
you are using stereo tracks or mono tracks routed
to a stereo output.
The Pan slider on a MIDI track is effective only if
you are controlling a sound module that supports
MIDI panning.
Volume Fader
The Volume fader controls the playback level of a
track when it is playing back, and the monitor level
of the track when it is recording. You can link the
record and monitor levels by enabling the
Link Re-
cord and Play Faders
option in the Operation pref-
erences.
The maximum fader gain for a volume fader is
+12 dB.
MIDI Volume Fader
If your MIDI sound module supports volume, the
volume fader on a MIDI or Instrument track can
send a value of 0–127 to the MIDI volume control-
ler.
Real-Time Properties
In the Edit window, Real-Time Properties view
provides access to Real-Time Properties controls
(such as Quantize or Transpose) on MIDI and In-
strument tracks. For more information, see “MIDI
Real-Time Properties” on page 705.

In the Edit window, Track Color view displays the
Track Color strip at the left-most side of the Track
controls.

the track’s Output window or in the Mix win-
dow.
Send Pan controls can be linked to the Main
Pan controls of a track by enabling the
Follow Main Pan button in Send window.
