Next, adjust the volume levels and panning of your
Tracks' Plugin Programs:
1. In the software, click the Track Mixer icon.
Channel strips for the Tracks will be on the left
and for the Plugin Programs on the immediate
right. Above each channel strip's Pan knob,
you will see where its audio is routed.
2. Adjust the volume and panning of a Track's
note events routed to the Plugin Program by
adjusting that Track's volume slider or pan
knob, respectively. By default, the volume and
pan values will initially appear as ?, indicating
the Program is not sending any volume or pan
changes (this allows certain plugins to load
with their optimal default settings).
3. Use the corresponding Plugin Program volume
slider and pan knob to control the volume level
and panning routed to its output.
Important:
•
If you copy a Sequence, the volume and pan
values will be copied with that Sequence. If
you move to a new Sequence and put the
same Plugin Program on a new Track, though,
these values will appear as ?, as described
above.
•
By default, some plugins do not support MIDI
volume and pan. In this case, adjust volume
levels and panning on the Track.
Tip: You can draw automation for each Track in the Automation lane under the grid in Main Mode,
Program Edit Mode, Program Mixer Mode, Track View Mode, or Step Sequence Mode.
