Channel Strip Inspector

The Channel Strip Inspector is a panel on the right side of the Audio Mixer. When a user clicks on a mixer strip, the inspector updates to show that strip’s controls and audio configuration.

Note:

By default, Composer processes audio in stereo. The VU-meters in the inspector are only displayed if Composer has been set to process 8-channel audio in the Project Options.

From the Channel Strip Inspector, you can:

  • Perform advanced audio routing, such as rerouting audio to different stereo pairs.
  • Toggle Solo, Mute, and PFL buttons, mirroring the controls on the strip and input itself.
  • Access detailed Audio Options quickly without leaving the mixer view.

Options

  • Input - Stereo remapping: Enables channel reassignment for the stereo output. You can swap or re-route left/right channels to fit specific speaker setups or processing requirements.

  • Mapping - Mapping Options: Provides fine-grained channel remapping. Each of the 8 possible channels can be explicitly assigned to either the left or right output.

VU-Meters

By default Composer process the audio in stereo, but can also process 8 channels. If your project is set to process 8 channels, the Channel Strip Inspector will display an 8-channel VU-meter
