Chapter 10: Recording 101
Once your mix is set up pre-fader, you can copy
your current (main) fader mix to your newly-
created, independent, stereo cue mix.
To copy track levels to send level:
1 While pressing APPLY TO ALL CHANNELS or
OPT(ALT)/ALL, press any channel SELECT but-
ton. All select buttons on all channels light.
2 With your mouse, choose Copy To Sends from
the Pro Tools Edit Menu. A dialog will appear
asking if you wish to copy all fader data (includ-
ing automation, mutes, etc.), or just levels.
3 Choose levels only (the default), and choose
your new stereo cue send as the target in the
pop-up menu at the bottom of the dialog. Press
ENTER on the Control 24 numeric keypad to
confirm.
4 Press PLAY, and adjust the send levels as
needed for your cue mix. The AUX LEVEL knob
controls overall cue mix volume. Because the
cue sends are pre-fader, any soloing or muting
tasks that you perform in the control room will
not be heard in the cue mix.
For more control over the cue mix, in addition
to the Aux level master control, create a stereo
master fader for overall level control of the aux-
iliary buss.
Flip mode is very useful for setting up send/cue
mix levels, as it enables you control send levels
from Control 24’s touch-sensitive faders. Flip
mode for this purpose is explained in “Using
Flip Mode with Sends” on page 108.
