Arranging Tracks
To Drag a Track to a New Position
1. Position the mouse just to the right of the track number, over the track
icon of the track you want to move.
The cursor changes to an up/down arrow.
2. Drag the track to its new location, and release the mouse button.
SONAR rearranges and renumbers the tracks.
You can sort the tracks in a project based on several parameters, in either
ascending or descending order:
No matter how you sort, blank tracks always go to the end of the list.
Note that track numbers are used for reference only. When you re-arrange
the order of tracks, they are automatically assigned sequential numbers
based on the order in which they are displayed in the Track view.
To Sort the Tracks
1. Choose Tracks-Sort to display the Sort Tracks dialog box.
2. Choose the attribute by which to sort from the Sort By list:
Sort by… What happens…
Name Ascending puts track in alphabetic
order, descending puts them in reverse
order
Size, output, or channel Ascending puts them in increasing
numeric order, descending puts them
in decreasing numeric order
Muted, archived, selected Ascending puts qualifying tracks at the
end, descending puts them at the
beginning
