Effects Press the FX button to bring up the Effects Rack for that track. Lock If the track has one or more real-time effects applied to it, this button locks the track Bus If you've added this track to a bus, the Wet and Dry percentages are shown here. You can left-click and drag on these boxes to adjust these percentages. EQ The Low ("L"), Mid ("M"), and High ("H") equalization values of the track are displayed in these three fields. You can adjust the EQ level of one of these fields by left-clicking on it and dragging. Dragging to the right increases the number, while dragging to the left reduces it. For more equalization control, go to View > Track EQ. Record This button arms the track for recording. Press this master record button in the Transport Buttons to actually start recording. Solo This button solos the track so that only it will be heard on playback. All other tracks are muted. Note: Despite its singular name, more than one track may be soloed. To do this, hold down the Ctrl key while clicking on the solo buttons of all tracks you wish to put into solo mode. Mute The Mute button silences the output of this track. More than one track in an Adobe Audition session can be muted at one time. Show Organizer Window This command lets you see Adobe Audition's Organizer window. This handy, tabbed window allows you to easily open and close files, choose effects (including dragging real-time effects directly to tracks), and more. Note: The Organizer window is fully documented in the "Looking at the Work Area" chapter. Show Cue List The command opens the Cue List window, which is a dockable window. A cue list is a list of time offsets, or locations defined within an audio file. A cue can be either a point that specifies a cursor position, or a range that specifies a selection. You may define and save an unlimited number of cues in the Cue List for later recall, or for assembling in Adobe Audition's Play List. Note: The Cue List is fully documented in the "View Menu - Edit View" chapter.
