Chapter 6 Logic’s Mixing Facilities 309

If you enable the Same Instrument Tracks option, identical Arrange window tracks are

also displayed in the Track Mixer. These tracks have redundant settings for volume, pan,

and so on, so it’s usually unnecessary to display more than one. The mute settings,

however, may be different for each track.

Like the other editors, the Track Mixer can be stored as part of any Screenset (see

“Screensets” on page 32).

Folders and the Track Mixer

The Track Mixer can not only display the contents of the highest level of the Arrange

window, but also the contents of folders. The Track Mixer automatically registers any

change in the folder structure, or instruments assigned to tracks.

If a folder is selected, or if the top window is an Arrange display of a folder when you

open the Mixer, it will only show the tracks within the folder. If you click the directory

close-box (the square button below the window close-box at the top left), you will

switch the Track Mixer to the next-highest level; in this case, the level containing the

folder. Double-clicking the folder channel restores the display of the folder. The display

of Folder Tracks must be switched on in the Tracks menu for this to work.

General Tips for Using the Track Mixer

The following tips might help you make the most of the Track Mixer.

To create an arrange track using the Track Mixer:

In Global view, a double-click on the background of a channel will insert a new

(corresponding) track into the current Arrange window, provided that no

corresponding track already exists.

To mute arrange tracks using the Track Mixer

Option-clicking on the Mute button of an Audio Object will mute the corresponding

Arrange window track, but will not mute the Audio Object. A second Option-click will

un-mute the track.

Note: If the current Track Mixer view does not contain the Output or Bus Object, Global

view will automatically be enabled. The appropriate view filter (Output/Bus) will also be

enabled, ensuring that the selected Object type is visible.

The MIDI channel strips have little “LEDs”, which turn green for Note On events, and

yellow for all other MIDI information.

Send all Mixer Data

The selection of Options > Send All Mixer Data transmits all currently visible mixer knobs

and fader settings to MIDI.
