Work with tracks

In addition to reassigning tracks to channel strips, you can reassign them to either of the
following destinations:
•
No Output: Tracks assigned as No Output send no data. This can be useful in situations in
which you want to store data (such as SysEx) that you don’t want to send from Logic Pro.
•
Folder: This setting is used when you want the track to play a folder region. (See
on page 325.) Normal regions will not play on a track set up for folder playback.
Select tracks
Some track operations, such as duplicating tracks or assigning tracks to a different channel strip,
require that you first select the track or tracks.
You can select multiple tracks. When multiple tracks are selected, the first selected track is the
focused track. Some operations, such as choosing a patch in the Library, only affect the focused
track when multiple tracks are selected.
