Track record function
Track is a record function that allows you to modify recorded cues and
designate new levels for the displayed cue only or to track them forward
until a different level is encountered.
It also allows you to quickly modify groups of cues and add channels to
cues . You can also use it to create a new cue from the previous one, by
pulling all levels forward into the Blind display of the new cue.
Track Sheet

corded cues . From it, you can quickly see tracks for any individual
channel . You can then select a cue or a group of cues from the Track
Sheet and modify channel levels . Track Sheet provides one means for
tracking channels through allfade cues.
