Tracks in the Mix window

Audio, Auxiliary Input, Master Fader, and MIDI 
tracks appear as vertical channel strips in the 
Mix window. Track type is indicated by the 
Track Type icons, just below the faders. 

Audio Tracks

All audio tracks—whether audio (disk) tracks, 
Auxiliary Inputs, or Master Faders—share many 
identical controls. Figure 7 on page 61 shows 
the Channel controls found in the Mix window 
for a stereo audio or Auxiliary Input track. Mas-
ter Fader tracks do not provide all the controls of 
an audio track, such as Sends, Pan, or Record En-
able, Mute and Solo buttons.

MIDI Tracks

MIDI tracks provide track level, solo, and mute, 
in addition to MIDI input, output, channel, and 
program (patch) controls. MIDI volume, mute, 
and pan can also be automated using Pro Tools 
automation features (see “Mix Automation” on 
page 77 for more information).
