# Audio Mapping

**Audio Mapping Panel**

The **Audio Mapping Panel** allows precise control over each audio channel in a media file. You can adjust the following per-channel settings:

* **Volume**
* **Channel Output Label** (used for export)
* **Speaker Output Assignment**
* **Descriptive Label**

In the **Controls** section, you also have the ability to:

* **Disable** an individual audio channel
* **Split** a single audio channel across two different speakers
* **Solo** a channel (mutes all other channels and plays only the selected one)

**System Audio Mapping Integration**

Tin Man will attempt to **automatically map audio channels** based on your system’s audio output configuration, as defined in the **"Player – Audio" Preferences Panel**.

***

#### **Copy / Paste / Reset Options**

**Right-clicking** in the Audio Mapping panel opens a context menu with the following options:

* **Toggle Mute All** – Mute or unmute all audio channels at once
* **Copy Settings** – Copy the current audio mapping configuration
* **Paste Settings** – Paste a previously copied configuration
* **Reset Settings** – Revert to default or system-defined mappings

> **Note:** Paste and Reset actions can be applied to **all selected files** in the File List window for batch updates.

If you change your audio output setup in the **"Player – Audio" Preferences**, use the **"Reset"** or **"Reset Selected"** options from the Audio Mapping panel’s dropdown menu to reapply mapping based on the updated output configuration.
