  * *Section Volume*: adjusts the volume of the selected section.
  * *Layer Volume*: adjusts the volume of the selected layer.
* **Master volume**: set the new value of the master volume fade. 1 = 100% (fully on), 0 = 0% (silent).
* **Speed**: adjust the speed of the adjustment. 1 means real-time. If you set it to really small values, like 0.2, the fade value will adjust slowly towards the target value.
