Audio tracks
For audio tracks, all settings and sections listed above are
available.
• User Panels for audio tracks (Cubase only) can display
panels for channel controls (such as input phase or the
linked panner option) or for VST effects currently inserted
in the channel.
• User Panels for audio tracks (Cubase only) are accessed
by clicking the Open Device Panels button (found in the
topmost Inspector section, next to the Read/Write buttons).
This opens up a menu listing all the device panels available for the audio
track. If panels have not been created yet, you will see “Setup” panels in
the menu. Double-clicking on one of these will open the Device window
for that audio track. Here you will be able to create user panels for any
parameter of the audio track, including VST effects that have been in-
serted. For more information on how to create device and user panels,
see the separate PDF document “MIDI Devices”.
The device panel browser.
Once panels have been created, they are available from
the User Panel section of the Inspector. Click on the arrow
button at the top right of the User Panel section to view
the available panels.
