Duplicate
This command lets you define how many copies
of a track you want to create, and specifies
whether to copy audio or MIDI data, playlists,
automation, and other attributes.
When duplicating multiple tracks, you can also
choose to have the new tracks follow the last se-
lected track (or have each new track follow its
source track).
Duplicating a VCA slave track without duplicat-
ing its group assignments will coalesce any au-
tomation the duplicate track. The coalesced du-
plicate plays back exactly as if it were in the VCA
group.
Split into Mono
This command splits a selected stereo or multi-
channel track into individual mono tracks that
can be edited and manipulated independently.
The
Split into Mono command cannot be undone.
Make Inactive or Make Active
This command makes selected tracks inactive,
so that they no longer play back or use any DSP
resources or voices. Inactive tracks can be made
active again by choosing the
Make Active com-
mand.
Delete
This command removes tracks from a session.
While audio or MIDI clip data will remain in the
Clip List, the track and its arrangement of the
clips on the deleted track (the track’s playlist)
will be lost.
If the track contains playlists that are not as-
signed to any track, you will be prompted to de-
lete or retain them.
Deleting a VCA Master track will coalesce auto-
mation from the VCA Master to all of its slave
tracks.
Write MIDI Real-Time
Properties

ration, delay, velocity, and transposition param-
eters during playback, as set in Real-Time Prop-
erties View (in the Edit window) or in the MIDI
Real-Time Properties dialog.
