The "Solo" button switches a track to solo mode, i.e. all other tracks are
muted. Mute: The mute button mutes the active track.
Double clicking on each of the controls resets it to the passive basic setting, in
which no processor output is needed.
Control groups
The volume, panorama, and FX send faders of the various tracks can be
compiled into control groups. To do this, first click on a fader and then, while
holding down "Ctrl", click on all other faders that you wish to include in your
group. If you select "Shift", all faders in between the first one selected and the
next one will be grouped.
Now you can set the volume of multiple tracks together without having to
change the volume ratios of the tracks. For example, you can set the volume of
an individual instrument of a drumset (kick, snare, HighHat) in such a way that
they can harmonize with one another. Now, if you group together the volume
faders of the tracks, you can set the master volume of the drumset.
To ungroup a fader from a control group, click the instrument and press "Ctrl"
again. There may only be one control group active at a time, creating a new
group automatically deactivates an existing group.
Track effects
Besides the object audio effects, a separate track effects rack with equalizer,
reverb/echo, compressor as well as the Vintage Effects Suite plug-ins can be
used.
There is also a separate 4-channel parametric equalizer (view
page 212) that may be opened via the small EQ button beside
the panorama controller.
The plug-ins are loaded via the plug-in slot.
You can open the track audio effects rack with the FX button.
A bright blue track effects button signifies that effects are active in the track.
