- The mixer menu

- »Mixer»
- ─────
-
- The mixer menu is invoked by pressing <ALT+M> or by
- clicking on the 'MIXER' button on page 1.
-
- The mixer menu is also active during sampling and
- input monitoring.
-
-
- The mixer menu looks something like this:
-
- ┌────────────────────────────────────────────┐

-
- At the top of the mixer menu, in the 'mixer' textbox,
- the selected mixer hardware is shown.
-
- The small button to the right of the textbox is used
- to switch between mixers if you have both a GUS and
- a SoundBlaster PRO or better installed.
-
-
- The six sliders are used to control the sound level of
- the different inputs and outputs the selected mixer
- may have.
-
- All sliders except for the MIC slider are in stereo.
- Set left/right channel by pressing left/right mouse
- button while sliding (or both).
-
-
- With a SoundBlaster PRO card, the input source for
- recording may be set without using the sliders. To
- select an input source, just click on one of the
- MIC, LINE or CD texts.
-
- The FILTER setting is also strictly for the SB PRO.
- It lets you select between two low-pass filters used
- while recording. The 'HI' filter cuts frequencies over
- 8.8 kHz, the 'LO' filter cuts at 3.2 kHz.
-
-
- ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- NOTE TO GRAVIS ULTRASOUND USERS:
-
- I am sorry to say that SBStudio only supports the
- old GUS mixer. Therefore, only the MAIN, MIC and
- LINE sliders will work, and just as ON/OFF toggles.
- ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
-
- The sample rate for recording is also selected from the
- mixer. Use the up/down buttons to select the desired
- recording rate.
- Click on the sample rate window to toggle between hertz
- and note rate selection. They are independent of each
- other.
-
- The BITS setting lets you select between 8 and 16 bit
- recording resolution. 16 bit recording is currently
- only available with the SoundBlaster 16.
-
-
- The 'SAVE' and 'LOAD' buttons do exactly what they
- say, they save and load the mixer settings.
