Options

General
Undo - LevelsThe number of operations that can be undone; if set to zero, undo is disabled. This value can only be edited if Unlimited (see below) is unchecked.
Undo - UnlimitedIf checked, the undo history grows without limit; otherwise, Levels (see above) limits the number of operations that can be undone. If unlimited, the undo history can consume a significant amount of memory over time, especially for clipboard and snapshot operations.
Display TooltipsIf checked, tooltips are displayed throughout Mixere, except in modal dialogs.
Audio DeviceSelects which audio driver Mixere will use; normally set to "default". The other options are "directsound" (DirectX), "winmm" (Windows Multi-Media), and "null" (no audio). Note that while audio files are open, this option is disabled: to re-enable it, close all documents.
Sliders
Display SmoothnessAllows you reduce Mixere's CPU usage by making automation jerky. At maximum, automation sliders move smoothly; at minimum, they move in jerks, but CPU usage is reduced. Note that this option only affects the visual feedback, not the audio; audio is always automated as smoothly as possible. This option should normally be set to maximum, unless automation is causing excessive CPU usage. This could happen if a large number of automations are occurring simultaneously.
Middle-click shows auto dialogIf checked, pressing the middle mouse button (wheel) while the cursor is over an automation slider causes the slider's automation dialog to be shown, or hidden if it's already visible. If unchecked, the automation dialog can still be accessed using Ctrl+left-click.
Automate volume unpauses audioIf checked, starting a volume automation has a side effect: if the track's audio is paused, it begins playing. If unchecked, this side effect is disabled. Note that the "Go" command provides a more general synchronization method.
Auto-trigger turns off audio loopingIf checked, starting an auto-trigger has a side effect: it turns off audio looping for the corresponding track. If unchecked, this side effect is disabled.
Appearance
FontAllows you to change the font used for track titles. Press the "Choose" button to display the standard font dialog. Select the desired font, and press OK. To restore the default font, press the "Default" button.
ColorAllows you to change some of Mixere's colors. Currently only two colors can be changed: "Selection" (indicates which tracks are selected), and "Current" (indicates which track is the current track). Use the list box to select the color you want to change. Press the "Choose" button to display the standard color dialog. Select the desired color, and press OK.
