Hiding and Showing the Channel Strips Area

You can hide the Channel Strips area or show it if it is hidden. Hiding the Channel Strips

area gives you more room for the workspace.

m Choose View > Channel Strips (or press Command-6).

m In the Toolbar, click the Channel Strips button.

Customizing the Toolbar

The Toolbar at the top of the MainStage window contains buttons for frequently used

commands. You can customize the Toolbar, adding buttons for the functions you use

most often and can return to the default set later.

The default set of Toolbar buttons includes buttons for selecting the different window

modes, hiding the Inspector and the Channel Strips area, activating Master Mute, and

other common commands. You can customize the Toolbar with additional buttons for

other commands and adjust the position and spacing of items. You can also hide the

Toolbar to maximize available screen space. You customize the Toolbar by dragging

items from the Customize Toolbar dialog to the Toolbar.

To show the Customize dialog, do one of the following:

m Choose View > Customize Toolbar.

m Control-click the Toolbar, then choose Customize Toolbar from the shortcut menu.

The Customize Toolbar dialog appears, and spaces between buttons in the Toolbar are

outlined in gray.

To add a button to the Toolbar:

m Drag a button from the Customize sheet to the Toolbar.

If you drag a button between two existing buttons, the buttons move to make room

for the new button.

To move a button in the Toolbar:

m If the Customize Toolbar dialog is visible, drag the button to move it.

m If the Customize Toolbar dialog is not visible, Command-drag the button to move it.

You can also rearrange the Toolbar using set-width spaces, flexible spaces, and

separators.
