volume and volume+
OK, I give up. In 8.5.3, I usually view my audio track volume controls as relative volumes - and they appear as volume+ in the PRV. How do I toggle this on and off in X1? It is definitely on in my current project, and it's not on in the default project - so it *must* be able to be turned on and off.
I can't find it anywhere, and have run out of things to look up in the help screen.
Anyone got any ideas?

You may be in offset mode. Press O to toggle it off.

Try the "O" key. That puts your project into offset mode (assuming that you haven't overwritten the default keybinding).

Yes, "o" is still the offset hotkey for X1.

Thanks guys! That's it!
Where did you find this? I looked for "offset" in the manual and don't see it...
I like to work in offset mode - but sometimes I like to come out of it to check if a track has been set away from 0db while not in offset mode.

Yeah but - how is an ordinary person supposed to find out?

- Press F1 to open help
- Click on the SEARCH tab
- Type OFFSET into the "Type in keyword to find:" field
- Click the 20th result titled "Envelope mode and Offset mode"
...and that will give you this - Envelope mode and Offset mode There are two modes which control how your volume faders, pan faders, bus send faders, and bus send pan faders behave during playback. The two modes are Envelope mode and Offset mode. Envelope mode. In envelope mode, volume and pan faders follow the project’s automation and do not respond to changes you make in real-time. Offset mode. In Offset mode, you “ offset” the current automation in a track using a parameter’s controls. For example, if a pan envelope is set to hard left (100% left) and you adjust the pan in offset mode to 100% right, then the pan parameter is now set to hard right. Setting the pan in offset mode to 50% right would set the pan to the center.  Note: Any position that you set a fader to in Offset mode remains in effect when you switch back to Envelope mode. For example, if you set a volume fader to -INF while in Offset mode, switch to Envelope mode and drag the fader to its maximum level, you will not hear anything. To enable Offset mode [font=""]● Press O. In Offset mode, all controls that can be offset appear with a plus sign. For example Vol+. The following audio controls support both Envelope and Offset modes: Table 175. Control Envelope Mode Range Offset Mode Range Volume -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB Pan 100% L to 100% R, default is C 100% L to 100% R, default is C Bus Send Level -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0 dB -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB Bus Send Pan 100% L to 100% R, default is C 100% L to 100% R, default is C Bus Return Level -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB Bus Return Balance 100% L to 100% R, default is C 100% L to 100% R, default is C Main Out Volume -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB -Infinity to +6dB, default is 0dB Main Out Balance 100% L to 100% R, default is C 100% L to 100% R, default is C The following MIDI controls support both Envelope and Offset modes: Read it in the help as the copy/paste above lost some data and ate the formatting. Ciao, Q. Table 176. Control Envelope Mode Range Offset Mode Range Volume 0 to 127, default is 101 0 to 127, default is 101 Pan 100% L to 100% R, default is C 100% L to 100% R, default is C Chorus 0 to 127, default is 0 -127 to 127, default is 100 Reverb 0 to 127, default is 0 -127 to 127, default is 100

Thanks for that Qwerty! I admit I just didn't see it - and I was looking for a couple of hours!
DOH!
Oh well, hopefully I'll remember it now. ;-)
