Track-by-Track Playback

Pro Audio lets you play back any combination of tracks at one time by
changing each trackÕs status. There are four different status settings for
each track:
Status...
Normal
Mute
Archive
Solo
While playback is in progress, you can mute and unmute tracks in any
combination, which means you can hear only the tracks that you want.
You can change the status of a track in the Track view or in the Console
view or by using commands on the Track menu.
What it means...
The track is played as usual
The track is not played, but you can turn
it on while playback is in progress
The track is not played, and you must
stop playback to re-enable it. Archived
tracks do not tax your CPU during
playback so they can be used to store
alternate takes.
Only those tracks that are designated as
solo tracks are played; all others are
muted
