CHAPTER 4. LIVE CONCEPTS 15
The Arrangement and
Session View Selectors.
The Arrangement View and the Session View interact in useful ways. One can, for instance,
improvise with Session clips and record a log of the improvisation into the Arrangement for
further renement. This works because Arrangement and Session are connected via tracks.
4.3 Tracks
Tracks host clips and also manage the ow of signals, as well as the creation of new clips
through recording, sound synthesis, effects processing and mixing.
A Track in the
Arrangement View.
The Session and Arrangement share the same set of tracks. In the Session View, the tracks
are laid out vertically from left to right, while in the Arrangement View they are horizontal
from top to bottom. A simple rule governs the cohabitation of clips in a track:
A track can only play one clip at a time.
Therefore, one usually puts clips that should play alternatively in the same Session View
column, and spreads out clips that should play together across tracks in rows, or what we
call scenes.
