Mixer Window Controls
|
||

---------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The second window, the **Mixer Window**, can be viewed by going to the
|
||
|
main menu and clicking *Window > Mixer*.

|

|
|
||
|
The main function of the Mixer Window is to display all the Mixer Strips
|
||
|
for the various Tracks side by side for easy reference. This window is
|
||
|
mainly used during the **Mixing** process, and it also provides access
|
||
|
**Plugins** and other **Routing** features. See the chapters on
|
||
|
**Understanding Routing**, **Mixing** and **Using Plugins** for details.

This window also contains a listing of the available Mixer Strips in the
|
||
|
upper left hand corner. The check boxes in this area can be used to view
|
||
|
and hide the Mixer Strips of the different Tracks. Finally, there is an
|
||
|
area for managing **Groups**.
