Main Monitor
Dim: Amount of attenuation of the Monitor Main output in dB. Activated by the Dim button in the
Monitor panel.
Stereo Pan Law
The Pan Law can be set to -6 dB, -4.5 dB, -3 dB and 0 dB. The value chosen defines the level
attenuation in pan center position. This setting is useful because the ASIO host often supports
different pan laws too. Selecting the same value here and in the ASIO host, ASIO Direct Moni-
toring works perfectly, as both ASIO host and TotalMix use the same pan law. Of course, when
not using ADM it can be changed to a setting different from the factory preset of –6 dB as well.
You will most probably find that -3 dB gives a much more stable loudness when moving an ob-
ject between left and right.
29.11 Editing the Names
The channel names shown in the grey label area can be
edited. A right mouse click on the grey name field brings up
the dialog box Enter Name. Any name can be entered in
this dialog. Enter/Return closes the dialog box, the grey
label now shows the first letters of the new name. ESC
cancels the process and closes the dialog box.
Moving the mouse above the label
brings up a tool tip with the complete
name.
The hardware outputs (third row) can be edited in the
same way. In this case, the names in the routing drop
down menus will change automatically. Additionally
the names in the drop down menus of the Monitor
section will change as well.
The preset buttons can get
meaningful names in the same
way. Move the mouse above a
preset button, a right mouse click
will bring up the dialog box.
Note that the name shows up as tool tip only as soon as the mouse stays
above the preset button.
The preset button names are not stored in the preset files, but globally in the registry, so won't
change when loading any file or saving any state as preset. Loading a preset bank will update
the names too (see chapter 29.8).
