As you learned in Project 1, the Mixer panel is a powerful tool for controlling how Sibelius plays back your score. The Mixer lets you
change the sounds used to play back each of the instruments in your score, add effects such as reverb and chorus, edit specific parameters
to adjust each instrument’s sound, and balance the overall mix of the playback of your score.
Use the Mixer to mute the Synthesizer staves, since you no longer need them now that you have arranged the music from them for a
string section:
5 Now play back your score. You will hear that the string parts have replaced the Synthesizers.
6 Adjust the volume of the staff strips to balance the string parts.

There are group strips for each family of instruments in your score. Adjusting these changes the relative volume of the whole family.
If you can’t see the group strips, turn them on by clicking the Show/Hide Groups button ( ) at the left-hand side of the Mixer panel.
For example, change all of the string sounds to use solo instruments rather than ensemble strings to give the score a smaller, more
intimate feel:
