About Mix/Edit Groups and Hidden
Tracks
Even if a track is hidden, if it is a member of an
enabled group, all Mix window operations per-
formed on other members of the group will also
affect the hidden track—with the exception of au-
dio or MIDI record-enabling. If you solo, mute,
or automation write-enable a grouped track, any
group members that are hidden will be soloed,
muted, or automation write-enabled as well.
In the Edit window, however, editing operations
performed on members of an enabled group will
not affect hidden tracks that are also members of
the enabled group.
About Clipping and the Track List
(Pro Tools HD Only)
When a track, send, or plug-in clips, the Track
List displays the track's name in red. Both
shown and hidden tracks display clipping indi-
cation.
About Track Numbering and Hidden
Tracks
There are two ways to display Track Position
Numbers when tracks are hidden.
• Numbers are only assigned to tracks that are
shown (when Track Position Numbers Stay
with Hidden Tracks is not enabled in the Dis-
play Preferences page). In this case, active
tracks are then numbered sequentially. Hid-
den tracks are un-numbered.
– or –
• Tracks keep their Track Position Numbers
even when hidden (when Track Position
Numbers Stay With Hidden Tracks is enabled
in the Display Preferences page).
