Showing a track’s volume and pan curves

To make changes to a track’s volume or pan curve, you need to show the curve in the timeline.

Track mixer and volume curve

To show a track's volume or pan curve:

  1. Click the triangle next to the Lock button in the track’s header. The row for the volume and pan curves appears below the track in the timeline.
  2. Choose either Track Volume or Track Pan from the pop-up menu at the left of the row to select the curve you want to edit.
  3. Click the blue square next to the name to turn on the curve for editing.
  4. The curve is a horizontal line extending the length of the track. If you move the track’s slider (for volume curves) or dial (for pan curves) before adding any control points, the entire curve moves up or down to the level of the slider or dial.
