You can change and reset the volume of individual channels in the Mixer; for example, to balance instruments in an orchestral project.

Prerequisite

The Mixer is shown, either in the lower zone or in the Mixer window.

Procedure

In the Mixer, change the volume of channels in any of the following ways:
  • To increase their volume, drag their faders upwards.

  • To decrease their volume, drag their faders downwards.

  • To reset their volume to the default value, Ctrl/Cmd-click or double-click their fader values.

Result

The volume of the corresponding channels is changed.

Tip

You can change the default output level for all future projects on the Play page in Preferences. By default, this is set to -6 dB to avoid clipping in projects with large ensembles.
