Arranging tracks
To lock or unlock the height of a track
1. Right-click an empty area in one of the desired track’s controls to display the Track pane context
menu.
2. Choose Lock Height from the menu.
When you lock the height of a track, its height does not change when you use a Zoom or Fit
command. When a track’s height is locked, you can still drag the track strip’s lower border to adjust
the track’s height. After you drag the border, the altered track height becomes the track’s locked
height.
Copying tracks
When you copy one or more tracks using the Track view Tracks > Clone Track(s) command, you
can choose any of the following options:
• What to copy: events, properties, effects, sends
• Repetitions: how many copies of each selected track
• Starting track: where you want the first new track to appear
To copy tracks
1. Select the tracks that you want to copy.Click the Track view Tracks menu and choose Clone
Track(s) to open the Clone Track(s) dialog box.
2. Check the Clone Events, Clone Properties, Clone Effects, and/or Clone Sends boxes to
indicate which items you want to copy.
3. If you want copied events to become linked clips, check the Link to Original Clips check box.
4. Select the number of repetitions of each selected track that you want to create.
5. Select the track number where you want the first new track to appear. The other new tracks
appear right after it.
6. Click OK.
SONAR copies the tracks and pastes the selected tracks, with the first new track appearing at the
track number you selected. All tracks appear consecutively.
Note: When cloning an Instrument track, a new MIDI track is created and assigned to the same
soft synth as the cloned instrument track.
