Balance the tracks in a group

Balance the whole mix from Master

Select the Master track. Its Master Mix section, between Mix and Monitor, has one row per track that feeds Master directly. Drag a row, ⌥-click it to reset it to 0 dB, or double-click it to type a value.

Good to know

  • A row is the track’s own fader. A move there is an ordinary volume change; the track’s Mix section shows the same value, and its automation lane and MIDI binding keep driving it.
  • The fader sits before that track’s clipper. Pulling a Master Mix row down drives the clipper less, rather than turning down an already clipped signal.
  • A nested group is one row, with that group’s own fader. Its children stay on the nested group’s own Inspector.
  • Master Mix lists each ungrouped track and each top-level group. Return tracks are not listed; they stay in the Sidebar’s Outputs section.
  • Only the first 10 rows show. With more, click the section header to show the rest.
  • The sections set volume only. Pan, mute and solo stay on each track’s own Inspector and in the Sidebar.
  • Automation lanes inside a group are not listed: they carry no audio and have no fader.
  • Neither section appears when nothing feeds the bus.
  • Groups themselves (making them, nesting, color) are on Groups; each track’s own controls on Track Mix.
