Overview
The Visual Mixer is a controller that uses node-based mixing that connects you to compatible iZotope plug-ins in your session. In Visual Mixer, you can visually place your music in a virtual space. Using iZotope’s IPC technology, you can adjust the pan, volume, and stereo width of any Neutron 4 instance in your session. You can also access Assistant from Visual Mixer.

Plug-in Interface
Plug-in Controls
X/Y Pad
Move nodes within the X/Y pad interface to control different elements of your mix remotely.
Panning
Adjust the stereo pan control of any Neutron plug-in by dragging nodes left or right in the X/Y pad.
Volume
Adjust the output gain of any Neutron plug-in in your session by dragging nodes up and down in the X/Y pad.
Width
Adjust the Width amount of any stereo Neutron plug-in in your session by clicking on a node and adjusting the handles that appear on the left and right edges of the node.
NOTE: About Mono instances
Panning and Width can’t be adjusted from the Visual Mixer for mono instances of Neutron plug-ins.
Plug-in List
The list on the right side of the Visual Mixer interface displays the names of all Neutron plug-ins in your session. Clicking on the eye button to the left of the instance name will hide or show that instance in the X/Y pad.
You can double-click on an instance name to rename it from the Visual Mixer.
Mix Snapshots
Save Mix Snapshots to compare different configurations or hide/show states for the nodes in the Visual Mixer.
Set
Save a snapshot by clicking on the “Set” button above the A/B/C buttons.
A/B/C
Toggles the view to display the Mix Snapshot you set for a given button. These are greyed out until a snapshot is set.
Activity Metering
Nodes display activity metering to indicate if audio is passing through the associated plug-in. When red is displayed in the activity meter for a given node, it is indicating the associated Neutron plug-in output is clipping.
