4.3.1
Channel strip layout
Each output channel has a complete "strip" of controls.
4.3.2
Channel label
Each output channel has a customizable label, which is shown at the top of the channel strip. This label also
appears on the
Routing
tab. To change the label, click on it, type a new label (up to eight characters), and press
the Return key.
4.3.3
Gain control and level monitoring
Gain adjustment
The gain of each channel can be adjusted by moving the Gain Adjustment slider, or by typing the
desired gain into the Current Gain text box. The maximum gain setting is 12 dB, and the
minimum gain setting is –72 dB. (0 dB, the default, is unity gain or no change in level.)
Meter
Click this button to bring up an overlay that displays the current signal level in real time. (The
plugin must be in online mode to display signal levels.)
The level meters are useful in many situations. For example, when adding filters with boost, monitor the level
meters with typical signals and maximum levels to ensure that there is no clipping. The meters can also be used
during normal operation to monitor for or to help locate level or gain structure problems.
