Take lanes

Using Take lanes

A. Take lanes expanded B. Take lanes collapsed

After Take lanes are expanded, you can move clips on top of each other without SONAR

automatically creating new Take lanes.

Take lanes and Automation lanes can be displayed simultaneously. Take lanes are always displayed

immediately below the parent track, and Automation lanes are displayed below the Take lanes.

The Expand/collapse Take Lanes button has three states:

• Collapsed, with no existing lanes. The button is not highlighted .

Tip:

To show/hide Take lanes in the current track, press SHIFT+T.

Note 1: If you want to move a clip to the exact same time placement in an adjacent lane, hold

the SHIFT key down while you drag.

Note 2: If the Track view Options > Auto Crossfade option is enabled, SONAR adds a

crossfade between any newly overlapped clips that are on the same Take lane.
