Arranging tracks
SONAR provides a variety of commands that let you work with the tracks in your project. Here are
some of the things you can do.
You can Here’s why
Rearrange the tracks in the Track
view so that they appear in a
different order
This makes it easier to see and work with a subset of tracks, like the
rhythm section, or the vocals and vocal backing tracks, or all muted tracks.
Hide individual tracks This makes it easier to work in a large project. You can display only the
tracks you want to see at a given time.
Move tracks into a track folder Lets you group tracks by function, edit several tracks at once, hide groups
of tracks easily, and mute, solo, archive, arm, or input monitor a group or
tracks with one click. See “Track folders” on page 378 for more
information.
Make copies of a track Copying a track and then adding a time offset or changing the patch is an
easy way to double a part. You can also copy and then transpose a track to
add harmony.
Erase or delete a track Tracks and clips that you are no longer using in your project are distracting
and take up space in your project file.
