Adjust the Auxiliary Input track fader to control
the volume for the monitor mix.
Creating a Master Send Level
Control
A Master Fader can control the overall level of
bus and output paths.
To create a Master send level control:
1 Choose Track > New.
2 Specify the track type (Master Fader), and
mono, stereo, or any of the supported multi-
channel formats for surround mixing.
3 Click Create.
4 Do one of the following:
• Set the output of the Master Fader to the
same path that you are using to send to an
Auxiliary Input track.
• Set the output of the Master Fader to match
the path that you have chosen for your ef-
fects send.
You can then adjust send levels to balance the
source tracks, and use the Master Fader as a mas-
ter level control for the entire submix.
Soloing Tracks in a Submix
Soloing any tracks implicitly mutes all other
tracks, including Auxiliary Inputs. Solo-safing
an Auxiliary Input prevents this implicit muting
and lets the Auxiliary Input continue to pass au-
dio when its source tracks are in Solo.
To solo safe an Auxiliary Input:
 Control-click (Windows) or Command-click
(Mac) the Solo button on the Auxiliary Input
track.
To solo an individual track that is part of a group:
 Start-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac)
the Solo button.
Generating Stereo Output from a
Mono Send/Return
You can use an Auxiliary Input to generate a ste-
reo output from a mono send. Set the send des-
tination to a mono Auxiliary Input track and
place a mono to stereo plug-in on the Auxiliary
Input. The output of the Auxiliary Input be-
comes stereo.
To create a “stereo” effect from a mono source,
you must use reverb, delay, or other time do-
main effects.
