most of the buttons are reduced in size.

The Track List

The Track List (at the left of both the Mix and
Edit windows) shows all tracks in the session. It
allows you to show or hide a track in the Mix,
Edit, MIDI Editor, and Score Editor windows.
Even though a track is hidden, the material on
the track will still play as part of the session. In-
active tracks appear in italics in the Track List.
The Track List can also be used to create
new tracks when importing media from
DigiBase. See "Importing Files with Drag
and Drop" on page 280.
