Channel Controls#

The monitor section displays the number of tracks currently soloed, muted or listened, along with buttons to unsolo, unmute, or unlisten every track.

Global Levels#

The monitor section includes global mute, listen and dim level controls.

Mute Level

The level at which muted tracks will be played

Listen Level

The level at which listened tracks will be played

Dim Level

The level at which unlistened tracks will be played when at least 1 track is listened

Monitor Output#

In Zrythm, what you actually hear through your speakers is not the output of the master track, but the monitor output. The master track routes its output to this special processor that processes the signal before sending the output to the speakers.

Monitor Knob#

The Monitor knob controls the output volume. If set to 0dB, the volume coming from the master track will remain unchanged.

Monitor Controls#

The following buttons exist to alter the signal passing through the monitor processor.

Mono

Sum the output to mono

Tip

This is useful for checking how the mix sounds in mono.

Dim

Dim the output to the dim level

Mute

Mute the output

JACK Output#

When using the JACK backend, there will be additional controls to route the output signal to one or more user-specified devices, instead of the default device used by JACK.
