Arranging in the master track 63
Set track markers
In many occasions you will not load single songs, one after the other, into a project,
but a certain number of them at the same time, for example while recording one side
of an LP.
If you want to record this LP on a CD, you should first set track markers at the
beginning of each song. The track markers can already be set while recording in the
Record dialogue – "by hand" or automatically by the automatic CD Track detector
(see below). It is however also possible to set, move and delete the track markers
afterwards by using the 1click-Burn-Automation.
It is furthermore possible to set the track markers directly in the master track. Place
the position line on the beginning of a new song and press the m key (or select the
option "set track marker" in the CD menu). The new track marker appears just above
the position line on the time ruler.
Automatic track recognition
There are multiple options for automatically separating the material into CD tracks:
1. during recording in the Record dialog (view page 47)
2. using the option "Automatically set track markers" (view page 141) (CD menu)

Track markers are set automatically at the end of a pause.
The second step checks to make sure the interval between the pauses is long enough.
For example, it is very improbable that a recording of the Top Ten hits will contain
