Channel: Shows which output channel an element is to be sent to. Various elements can be sent to different output channels. The output channels can be set directly in the column. By default the main [PROGRAM] output channel is selected, but this can be changed by setting an alternative channel for this element only or in a template. If it is changed, all data elements made from the template will then have this channel. By creating a group and placing elements within it, all elements in the group will be organized by having the same channel. The Channel column is presented by default.

For example, a lower third can be shown in front of a virtual studio set or any other background, or a bug can be shown in the front layer while a lower third is shown in the middle layer. This column is presented by default.
