Track Controls and Track Height

The Track Height affects how the various track
controls appear in the Edit window. For in-
stance, when a track’s height is set to Small,
most of the buttons are reduced in size.

When the Track Height is set to Mini or Micro,
only controls for Record, Solo, and Mute appear,
and the menus for Playlist, Track Timebase, Track
Height

, and Track View are accessed from the

same selector.

When the Track Height is set to Medium, Large,
Jumbo

, or Extreme, all track controls are dis-

played at their full size.

The Track List (at the left of both the Mix and
Edit windows) shows all tracks in the session. It

the track will still play as part of the session. In-
active tracks appear in italics in the Track List.
