New track folder
Inserts a new folder track in front of the marked track. If a range across several
tracks was highlighted before creating the folder track, then each of these
tracks will be added to the folder.
Tracks can be moved into the folder with drag & drop by clicking on a free area
in the track box. The mouse pointer turns into a hand. Similarly, tracks can be
removed from the folder via drag & drop and out of the track box.
Certain actions can also be grouped. This means an action performed on a
folder track affects all contained tracks. Tracks in a folder can be:
 Faded out with the "Reduce track" button. All tracks included in the folder
track are displayed in reduced size.
 Switched to mute, lock, monitoring, and solo.
 Volume controlled. The individual volume faders of the tracks are scaled
relative to another, independent of the current function of the track volume
fader (MIDI, CC, or audio level)
 Activated (the displayed condition corresponds to the first track of the folder,
joint switching is only possible with different/multi-track recording devices)
If the folder track display is enlarged (opened up), all included tracks are
displayed as well with a frame in the color of the folder track. The track color
can be selected in the track settings. If the folder track is minimized, the tracks
included in the VIP are hidden. They continue to be available in the mixer. They
are also available in the mixer.
Normally, all the tracks can be seen with the objects they contain in the folder
in a smaller display. Section marking in the folder track is carried out across all
tracks. Use this view mode for section-based cut operations across all tracks
of the folder track.
By right clicking on the track box of the folder track, the contained track can
be used as a reference track. The objects of this track are displayed in the
folder and can be used for simultaneous object-based cutting operations for all
objects of the other tracks in the folder track that are grouped with these
objects. Object groups like these typically originate from multi-track
recordings.
The usual method of working with folder tracks would be as follows:
1. Initiate a multi-track recording. This creates several grouped objects, one
below the other.
