WORKING WITH TRACKS CHP. 5
Using the track list
Each track in your project has its own controls, faders, and sliders that are contained in the track list on the
left side of the track. You can work with these controls to affect the events on the track.
Using the volume fader (audio only)
This fader controls the volume of the events on a particular audio track. The fader’s range is -.inf to 12 dB.
To adjust the fader, drag it to the desired volume level. As you drag the fader, the volume level displays to the
left of the fader. Double-click the fader to set it to 0.0 dB, or double-click the current volume value to enter
a specific number.
Tip: Press while dragging or use the mouse wheel for
finer control of the fader. You can also move the fader by
using the right or left arrow keys.
Volume envelopes allow you to automate track volume changes. For more information, see Working with track
envelopes on page 107.

send levels, and assignable effects send levels. The options for
the multipurpose slider depend on what your project contains
(e.g., busses, assignable effects, etc.). You can select what the
slider controls by clicking the slider label. Each item’s slider
position is independent from the others.
