Folder tracks
When a folder track is selected, the Inspector shows the
folder and its underlying tracks, much like a folder struc-
ture in the Windows Explorer or Mac OS X Finder.
Ö You can click one of the tracks shown under the folder
in the Inspector to have the Inspector show the settings
for that track.
This way, you don’t have to “open” a folder track to make settings for
tracks within it.
Here, an audio track within the folder is selected.
FX channel tracks
When an FX channel track is selected, the following con-
trols and sections are available:
• Edit button.
• Volume control.
• Pan control.
• Output routing pop-up menu.
• Inserts section.
• Equalizers section.
• Equalizer Curve section.
• Sends section.
• Studio Sends section (Cubase only).
• Surround Pan section (Cubase only).
• Channel section.
• Notepad section.
FX channel folder tracks
FX channel tracks are automatically placed in a special
folder, for easier management. When this folder track is
selected, the Inspector shows the folder and the FX chan-
nels it contains. You can click one of the FX channels
shown in the folder to have the Inspector show the set-
tings for that FX channel – this way you don’t have to
“open” a folder track to access the settings for the FX
channels in it.
Group channel tracks
When a Group channel track is selected, the following
controls and sections are available:
• Edit button.
• Volume control.
•Pan control.
• Output routing pop-up menu.
• Inserts section.
• Equalizers section.
• Equalizer Curve section.
• Sends section.
• Studio Sends section (Cubase only).
• Surround Pan section (Cubase only).
• Channel section.
• Notepad section.
Group channel folder tracks
Just like FX channel tracks, all Group channel tracks are
placed in a separate folder – when this is selected, the In-
spector shows the folder and the Group channels it con-
tains. You can click one of the Group channels shown in
the folder to have the Inspector show the settings for that
Group channel – this way, you don’t have to “open” a folder
track to access the settings for the Group channels in it.
Ruler tracks (Cubase only)
For ruler tracks, the Inspector isn’t used.
Transpose track
When the transpose track is selected, the following con-
trols and sections are available:
• Mute button.
• Keep Transpose in Octave range.
• Toggle Timebase button.
• Lock button.
• Notepad section.
The Transpose track controls are described in detail in the
chapter “The Transpose functions” on page 111.
