  • Keyboard assign ” set level On Track – In/Out”

    Posted by Sacha Van den boogerd on June 29, 2011 at 11:23 am

    Hi,

    Is there a way to assign “set level On Track – In/Out” or “set level – Global” to a key on my keyboard?
    I tried this via command palette an then the “menu to button” reassignment but this did’t work.

    Hope someone can help me with this one.

    Thx S vd Boogerd

    Yes.

    Open the Audio Mixer. Select tracks on the audio mixer. Adjust the level of the clip you’re parked on – now underneath the fast menu you can set the levels or adjust the levels (will work on an in/out as well.)

    This adjusts the clip volume NOT the auto gain (keyframing).

    Best,

    Hi Jeff,

    Thanks for your reply. But that was not the thing I needed to know, I probably wasn’t clear in my question but I wanted to know if I could assign a key on my keyboard to the “set level On Track – In/Out” in that fast menu?
    I’m sorry for my explanation but my english is not so good.

    Thx SvdBoogerd

    I don’t think these tool menu items can be mapped, no.

    No, your english is fine. My reading comprehension isn’t great when I’m sleepy. No, I just tested it, you can’t assign that to the keyboard. Nothing can be mapped from the audio mixer.

    There is a gain adjustment in the clip menu (which can be mapped) – but it looks like it can only be used for clips in the source monitor. I was hoping that it would work on segment selected clips, but that doesn’t work either.

    Best,
