4.4.5.1 INTRODUCTION
The Audio Mixer is really two devices in one. These are represented by the
two modes: Record mode and Playback mode. When in Record mode, the
Audio Mixer regulates the volume and balance of audio signals coming into
your recorder. When in Playback mode, the Audio Mixer regulates the
volume and balance of outgoing audio. You can toggle between these two
modes by alternately clicking Playback and Record on the left side of the
Audio Mixer.
4.4.5.2 THE AUDIO MIXER CONTROLS
The number of sources available to the Audio Mixer may vary depending on
the hardware setup of your computer. For instance, unless you have a CD-
ROM drive, you won't have a CD source available. Common sources that
your computer may have are:
Line:
sound from an audio device outside your computer, hooked up to
the Line-In jack.
Wave: sound from the Digital Audio Player.
Mic:
sound from a microphone hooked up to the Mic jack.
CD:
sound from the Compact Disk Player.
MIDI: sound from the MIDI Player.
Aux:
sound from an additional line-in determined by the hardware
manufacturer. Check your hardware manual for how this source is
used.
Master: controls the volume of all the channels mixed together before it
goes to your speakers or the recorder.
