The Mixer
MIDI-specific procedures
This section describes basic procedures for MIDI channels
in the Mixer.
MIDI channel strips
The MIDI channel strips allow you to control volume and
pan in your MIDI instrument (provided that the instrument
is set up to receive the corresponding MIDI messages).
The settings here are also available in the Inspector for
MIDI tracks.
Panning MIDI channels
For MIDI channels, the pan control sends out MIDI pan
messages. The result depends on how your MIDI instru
-
ment is set to respond to pan – check your documentation
for details.
Using Channel Settings
For each MIDI channel strip in the Mixer (and MIDI track in
the track list or the Inspector), there is an Edit (“e”) button.
Clicking this opens the MIDI Channel Settings window.
By default, this window contains a duplicate of the Mixer
channel strip.
You can customize the Channel Settings window by
showing/hiding the different panels and/or by changing
their order:
• To specify which panels are shown or hidden, right-
click in the Channel Settings window and activate/deacti
-
vate the corresponding options on the Customize View
submenu of the context menu.
• To change the order of the panels, select Setup on the
Customize View pop-up menu and use the “Move up” and
“Move Down” buttons in the dialog that opens.
Every MIDI channel has its own Channel Settings window.
