4 - The PatchMix DSP Mixer<br />

Overview of the Mixer<br />

Mixer Window<br />

The Mixer consists of four main sections.<br />

Application Toolbar<br />

Main Section<br />

Mixer Strips<br />

Lets you manage sessions and show/hide the various views.<br />

Controls all the main levels, aux buses, and their inserts. This<br />

section also has a “TV” which shows parameters for the<br />

currently selected effect and the input/output patchbay. It<br />

also shows the session’s current sample rate and whether<br />

the <strong>Digital</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> <strong>System</strong> is set to internal or external clock.<br />

This section is located to the left of the Main Section and<br />

shows all the currently instantiated mixer strips. Mixer strips<br />

can represent Physical analog/digital inputs, or Host<br />

inputs such as ASIO or Direct Sound. Mixer strips can be<br />

added or deleted as necessary. This section can be resized<br />

by dragging the left edge of the frame.<br />

Effects Palette<br />

A simplified diagram of the mixer is shown below.<br />

This popup window is invoked by pressing the FX button in<br />

the toolbar. Effects presets are shown here, organized by<br />

category. From this window, you can drag and drop effect<br />

presets into the insert slots available on the mixer strips and<br />

main section aux buses and main inserts.<br />

Pre Fader or Post Fader<br />

When creating a new Mixer Strip, you have the option for the Aux Sends to be Post Fader<br />

(both Aux Sends come after the channel fader) or Pre Fader (both Aux Sends come before the<br />

channel fader). The Pre-fader option allows you to use either Aux Send as another mix bus,<br />

which is unaffected by the channel fader. More Information.<br />
