Monitor Main
Dim: Amount of attenuation of the Monitor Main output in dB. Activated by the Dim button in the
Monitor panel.
Stereo Pan Law
The Pan Law can be set to -6 dB, -4.5 dB, -3 dB and 0 dB. The value chosen defines the level
attenuation in pan center position. This setting is useful because the ASIO host often supports
different pan laws too. Selecting the same value here and in the ASIO host, ASIO Direct Moni-
toring works perfectly, as both ASIO host and TotalMix use the same pan law. Of course, when
not using ADM it can be changed to a setting different from the factory preset of –6 dB as well.
You will most probably find that -3 dB gives a much more stable loudness when moving an ob-
ject between left and right.
23.11 Editing the Names
The channel names shown in the grey label area can be
edited. A right mouse click on the grey name field brings up
the dialog box
Enter Name . Any name can be entered in this
dialog. Enter/Return closes the dialog box, the grey label now
shows the first letters of the new name. ESC cancels the
process and closes the dialog box.
Moving the mouse over the label brings
up a tool tip with the complete name.
The hardware outputs (third row) can be edited in the
same way. In this case, the names in the routing drop
down menus will change automatically. Additionally the
names in the drop down menus of the Monitor section
will change as well.
The preset buttons can get mean-
ingful names in the same way. Move
the mouse over a preset button, a
right mouse click will bring up the
dialog box.
Note that the name shows up as tool tip only, as soon as the mouse stays
over the preset button.
The preset button names are not stored in the preset files, but globally in the registry, so won't
change when loading any file or saving any state as preset. But loading a preset bank (see
chapter 23.8) the names will be updated.
