(Mixing Session Selector)

A list of mixing sessions that currently exist within the project.

The name of the selected mixing session is displayed in the corresponding field.

Editing States

The name of each State Group and corresponding States associated with the objects in the mixing session.

The currently selected state changes the States being edited in the Mixing Desk.

Follow States

Determines whether the States in the mixing session follow the States in the game.

When enabled, the mixing session follows the State changes made in game. When disabled, the States in the mixing session do not follow the State changes in game.

Push States

Determines whether changing states in the mixing session will also change the States in the game.

When enabled, each time the editing states are changed in the mixing session, the States will be also change in the game. When disabled, changing the States in the mixing session will not change the States in game.

Opens the Copy States Values dialog where you can copy the property settings from one State to another within the same State Group.

Activity

Indicates, using a series of icons, whether there is any audio activity within the bus or object.

You can monitor the activity of each object or bus using the following icons:

(Mute and Solo)

Controls the Mute and Solo states for the object and shows the implicit mute and solo states for the object.

Muting an object silences this object for the current monitoring session. Soloing an object silences all the other objects in the project except this one.

A bold M or S indicates that the Mute or Solo state has been explicitly set for the object. A non-bold M or S with faded color indicates that the object's Mute or Solo state was implicitly set from another object's state.

Muting an object implicitly mutes the descendant objects.

Soloing an object implicitly mutes the sibling objects and implicitly solos the descendant and ancestor objects.

	Tip
	Hold the Ctrl key while clicking a solo button to exclusively solo the object for which the solo button is associated.

	Note
	Mute and Solo are designed to be used for monitoring purposes only and are not persisted in the project or stored in the SoundBanks.

(Meter)

A per channel peak meter. For more information about speaker configurations and channels, refer to Understanding Bus Configurations.

The signal level is green under -6 dB, yellow from -6 to 0 dB, and red over 0 dB.

The meter data source can be synchronized with the currently playing objects or, when a profiling session is present, with historical values. When the meter is showing the profiling session history, use the LIVE button on the Wwise toolbar to return to current values.

	Note
	Meters are not available on non-mixing busses. Refer to Understanding the bus icons and processing status for more information on the various processing statuses.

The Mixing Desk lists all properties associated with the objects added as mixer strips to the Mixing Session, if they are set to be displayed in the Mixing Desk Settings. For details on the properties, refer to the objects' corresponding Property Editor documentation under the Master-Mixer Hierarchy, Actor-Mixer Hierarchy, or Interactive Music Hierarchy pages.

Widens the mixer strips.

Resets the mixer strips to their default width.

Narrows the mixer strips.
