Show Options
These options in the Clip List can show different
types of clips and clip information. Select the
Show options for the items you want to show.
You can also deselect Show options to hide a
type of clip or clip information to streamline the
list of clip names.
Clip Types
Audio Shows Audio clips in the Clip List.
MIDI Shows MIDI clips in the Clip List.
Video Shows video clips in the Clip List.
Groups Shows clip groups in the Clip List.
Auto-Created Shows automatically-created
clips. These are clips that were created as a by-
product of cutting, pasting, and separating
other clips. Since these by-product clips can be-
come numerous, hiding them (by deselecting
the option) helps you to avoid scrolling through
an unnecessarily long Clip List.

with Default Clip Color Coding option in Dis-
play Preferences page, or as assigned in the

cific clips so they can be dragged to tracks, pro-
cessed with AudioSuite plug-ins, or exported.

ing with an AudioSuite plug-in. Whole-file au-
dio clips reference an entire audio file that

clips are displayed in bold in the Clip List
Offline Selects clips whose parent files cannot be
located, or are not available, when opening a
session or importing a track. Offline clips ap-
pear in the Clip List as italicized and dimmed;
they appear in playlists as light blue clips with
italicized names.
