It is a hazard that you might accidentally \textit{undo} (\texttt{z}) too far and lose your mixer windows. Here are the steps to recover. It is recommended that you make a backup of your project before performing the recovery steps just in case there are other problems.
In the patchbay box to the left of the main timeline, there is a right pointing arrow on the right side. This is called the \textit{Expander} (figure~\ref{fig:mixer-patchbay01}). When you click on each expander, another line appears below that expander arrow and the timeline track height is slightly increased. If you Shift-click on a single expander, the patchbay will expand for all of the tracks.
