Educate me please..

Good day illunaries......

Based on the blurb I got last week I'm thinking pulling the trigger on X1PE.
I'm still on Sonar 5.0PE so it's probably time I enter into the 21st century with everyone else.
Yes...a different look and navigation but I've been putzing around with the X1 Trial for the last couple of days.

ProChannel module:
New to me and the letters at the top are cut off and unreadable?
I was playing around with the EQ and could not figure out/find how to reset it to flat?

If the above it due to my usage or stupidity let me have it.

I'm just scratching the surface so any guidance on these inquiries OR anything else that might help me wade through the learning curve.

Thanks to all in advance....

Addendum: I thought I would see if X1 would load on my old P4 2.8 gig machines and the install politely flips me off.
This machine I'm on now X1 installed fine as it's a new Dell Inspiron with 4 gig ram and a 17" screen (YES!)
All works well as I'm using ASIO4ALL for now.
I do have the USB audio interface UCA200 that came with my Behringer 1622FX but haven't tried it yet.

lorneyb2....

Many thanks for the help.
I tried about everything except what you said on the EQ thing.

I'll continue on the familiarity path.

Have a good one...

Quazelar, When you click on the boost/cut knobs on the EQ do they go back to flat (0 db)?  Do the Q knobs go straight up when you double-click them?  That is all that is supposed to happen.  The freq buttons do not default to straight up.  They are set to someone's idea of a useful freq, but that's OK, because who's to say what the default there should be?  0 and 0 are logical defaults for boost/cut and Q.

Don't shoot me for asking the obvious, please, but you know that Pro Channel will only open on audio tracks, right?  If you have a MIDI track selected, it won't open because it has no meaning for MIDI data.

I'm sure you know this, but this is the kind of mistake I would make.

Konradh......haha....not to worry.  Based on my not figuring this out yet any question to me is valid.
Besides, I may shoot myself if I find I'm too daft to grasp these concepts.

Bristol_Jonesey....thanks for your comments.
This phrase "undock the PC via the inspector at the left of the screen. Make your edits then dock it again." I'll need to understand better when I fire up the laptop again shortly......I only on my first cup of mud.

I do want to give this version a good effort even though 5.0PE has always worked flawlessly for me.

Thank you both for trying to assist.

To see the entire Prochannel you need a resolution of 800 in height.  Unfortunately, the PC doesnt allow scrolling.
