Mixer View

DAW-style channel strip mixer for monitoring and controlling all audio channels in your measurement system

What is the Mixer?

The Mixer provides a familiar DAW-style interface for monitoring and controlling all audio channels in AudioMap. Each channel type — source, receiver, reference, playback, and output — gets its own channel strip with faders, metering, mute/solo, and a compact EQ display.

Channel Strip Types

Source

Output channels routed to speakers. Controls generator output level for each source.

Receiver

Input channels from microphones. Monitor mic levels and verify signal presence.

Reference

Reference loop channels for timing synchronization. Monitor reference signal quality.

Playback

Audio playback channels for tuning preview. Routes external audio through correction filters.

Output

Final output channels to your audio interface. Master level and routing control.

Channel Strip Controls

Fader

Vertical fader for level control with precise dB readout. Click to type exact values.

Level Meter

Peak and RMS metering with clip indicators. Color-coded: green (normal), yellow (caution), red (clip).

Mute / Solo

Mute individual channels or solo to isolate. Solo is exclusive — only soloed channels pass audio.

Compact EQ

Miniature frequency response curve showing the EQ applied to the channel. Click to open full EQ editor.

Channel Label

Configurable name and color. Double-click to rename. Color matches source/receiver assignment.

Master Strip

The master strip provides global level control and metering for the final output. It sits at the right edge of the mixer and shows the summed output of all active channels.

Gain Staging

Set individual channel faders to achieve the desired signal-to-noise ratio, then use the master fader to control overall output level. This prevents clipping while maintaining maximum dynamic range.
