Organize the Final Cut Pro timeline with audio lanes
With a few clicks, you can arrange audio clips into audio lanes in the timeline, based on
their role assignments. Audio lanes appear as separate, visually distinct layers in the
timeline. This view organizes audio clips visually and provides reference points that make
editing easier and more efficient.
Organizing the timeline in this way does not affect the content of your project or how
it plays back in the viewer—it simply adjusts the timeline appearance for your editing
convenience.
Note: When you display audio roles in separate lanes in the timeline, any clips that contain
both audio and video are expanded to show audio and video separately.
