Default Setting channel level numerically?

In PT 10 is it possible to key in a specific dB level in the mixer on a respective channel? For example I might want to set a level to -12.7 dB. How would I key in that specific value?

thx.

I have never seen that ability - although I would like to have it also


One thing you can do is hold down the command / control key while you're Dragging the mouse and it gives you fine mouse movement Instead of the course normal adjustments

Default Re: Setting channel level numerically?

In the mix window, right next to the output on the track, click the little fader symbol,
a channel fader window pops up,
there, at the numeric readout of the volume setting : click, punch in your value "-" , "12" , ". " , "7", enter,
done

Thank you, and cool ... would like to be able to do this in the Mixer window as well ... but fair enough.

The little channel fader window , that might work for you as well :
click the numeric value (highlighted) and scroll up/down with scroll wheel. (One Hand action )
