Surround buses
Surround buses are useful for mixing and adding effects to create a surround mix.
To patch a track through a bus
1. Open the Console view ( Views > Console View ) or the Track Inspector ( Views > Inspector ).
2. If you want to add effects to the bus, right-click in the effects bin of a bus (if it is not in use
already) and choose an effect from the effects pop-up menu. (If you are working in the Track
view, you may first need to display the Bus pane by clicking the
Show/Hide Bus Pane button
located at the bottom of the Track view.)
The name of the effect you have chosen appears in the bus effects bin.
3. Set the effect’s parameters and close it.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for any additional effects you want to use.
5. In the Console view or Track Inspector, select the channel strip that you want to patch through
the bus, then do the following:
• Drag the
Bus Send Level control for the bus to the approximate level you want.
• Drag the Bus Send Pan to the approximate setting you want.
• Click the Bus Enable button for the appropriate bus.
6. Repeat step 5 for all the tracks you want to patch through the bus.
7. In the bus, adjust the Input Gain and Output Volume controls to the approximate level you
want.
8. In the bus, drag the Input Pan and Output Pan controls to the approximate positions you want.
9. Play your tracks and adjust the Send Level controls, the Pan controls, etc.
To mute or solo a bus
Each bus has a Mute button and a Solo button. These controls act like the Mute and Solo buttons
in a track, but they affect all the signal routed through the bus.
1. Open the Track view, Track Inspector or Console view.
2. Click the Mute or Solo button in the bus you want to mute or solo.
Bus selection
As with tracks, buses can be selected in both the Track View and the Console View. The current
selection can contain a mixture of tracks and buses.
Bus selection is useful if you want to cut/copy/paste automation data in a bus, or delete multiple
buses.
