Tracks

Each Project has a user defined number of audio Tracks on which audio Clips can be placed, or audio inputs can
be recorded. Blocks representing placed or recorded Clips will appear on the Track as soon as a Clip has been
placed or recorded onto it. The Track itself extends horizontally beneath the Time Scale bar, and multiple Tracks
are stacked vertically.
On the left side of each Track is a Header panel with various controls and information displays. Please see: Track
Header Panel on page 93
Some operations only apply to a selected Track. A Track can be selected by left-clicking anywhere on the Header
which will then appear in a darker shade of gray. You can also select a Track by clicking on a blank Track area. How-
ever, when selecting a Track, be careful NOT to inadvertently click on any of the Track buttons, thereby changing a
Track function: the Track Name or a blank area are good places to click in order to select.

Track Numbering

Tracks are numbered according to the Mixer Strip they are connected to. So, in a project using Mono Mixer Strips
exclusively, if there are 10 Tracks they will be numbered 1-10.
Where there are Stereo Mixer Strips or Multi-channel Mixer Strips then, whilst each channel is on a separate Track,
both Tracks of a stereo pair are numbered the same, together with a suffix to indicate each channel type. The same
applies to multi-channel. As shown here:

Adding Tracks

By default, a new Project opens with the same number of Tracks as there are Input Channels defined in the
Mixer for the Project. However, Tracks can easily be added or deleted.

Creating Tracks via Paste

If a Clip or Composition is dragged and dropped or copied and pasted from Media Management or a Library onto
a blank area of the TimeLine where no Tracks exist, sufficient Tracks will be created below the last existing Track to
accommodate the number of Channels in the Clip or Composition.
