    Hi

    Tracks in Podium are defined by their sources etc.

    I’ve created what I thought were midi tracks to control external sound sources, plus an accompanying audio track for incoming sounds from those sources.

    But these tracks all have VU meters, regardless of whether they are “midi” or “audio” tracks (for the purposes of my arrangement).

    In the mixer there is an option to “minimise midi tracks” – but in this case it just minimises all the channels as they appear identical, regardless of whether they have audio or midi set as the input.

    How can one distinguish between them (like in a “traditional” sequencer) ?

    My audio tracks have have no source selected – just the soundcard audio inputs relevant for that particular track…

    thanks

    You can double-click a track to open the track properties, where you can disable volume/panorama faders and meters independently. The “minimize MIDI tracks” option in the mixer will work on tracks that have a source mapping which has no audio in- or output configuration (see the device mappings chapter in the guide about this). It seems “minimize audio tracks” will work on any tracks that have one of the above options enabled.

    If you’re using a hardware synth you may want to try creating a hardware definition for it in order to be able to assign and use it just like a plug-in instrument. I can’t help with this, though, as it’s one of the few things I never did in Podium myself. 😉
