The Audio Pane for Advanced Sequences

When an advanced sequence is open in Output mode, audio controls are available for each active track along with a slider for adjusting the combined output of the three tracks. The border color of each set of controls matches the color of the track in the sequence: green for NAT, blue for SOT, and purple for Voice. The NAT, SOT, and Voice controls are enabled or disabled depending on the position of the position indicator. For more information, see Working with Audio Tracks in Advanced Sequences.

	Control	Description
1	Panning knob	Controls the panning for each track. In the current release, the panning buttons are inactive. See Panning for Advanced Sequences.
2	Solo and Mute buttons	Click the S (Solo) button to monitor only the selected track or tracks. All other tracks are muted. Click the M (mute) button to mute only the selected track or tracks. Gray M buttons indicate audio is enabled. See Soloing and Muting Tracks for Advanced Sequences.
3	Volume slider	Click and drag the slider to adjust the volume level for an audio clip. The level applies only to the selected segment of a track, not to the entire track. These adjustments are saved with the sequence. See Adjusting Audio Levels for Advanced Sequences.

5	Track identifier	Identifies the track associated with the audio controls. By default, mono tracks are labeled NAT, SOT, and VO. For stereo tracks, labels by default are NAT 1, NAT 2, SOT 1, and SOT 2. The identifier for the master slider shows which tracks are currently monitored. A MediaCentral UX administrator can change the labels that identify each track by changing the settings in the Interplay Administrator Application Database Settings. For more information, see Configuring Settings in the Interplay \| Production Administrator.

See Setting the Audio Mix. • Set Reference Level: Lets you set the reference level for audio monitoring. See Setting the Reference Level.
