Arranging tracks
Changing the order of tracks
There are several ways you can change the order of tracks in the Track view:
• Drag a track to a new position in the Track view.
• Use the Track view Tracks > Sort Tracks command to rearrange the tracks in order based on the
track name, status, or other setting.
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.
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
