Using producer 8 some projects have a large send box in the console view with send level, pan, pre/post, on/off for both sends.
Other projects only have send level and on/off.
How do I change this setting?
The buttons off to the left turns those views on/off and right click in the strip for wide/narrow. (I had to check cause I haven't even looked at consol' in so long, but not too hard to find.
On the bottom left side of the console there are the buttons that turn the different sections on/off. If you right click the Send button, you can reduce it to simple, which reduces the clutter a bit.
In console view, with the inspector to the left of the screen, if you RIGHT click the "Sends" button, there's an option to compact/un-compact your send displays.
