Moving a channel. The thicker red line indicates where the moved channel will be inserted.
Displaying channels, devices and tracks in the same order
Channel strips in the mixer, Audio Track and Mix Channel devices and tracks can be independently re-ordered. This
allows you to set up the main work areas according to your preferences.
Should you wish to display mixer channels, devices in the rack and tracks in the same order, proceed as follows:
1. Select the area where everything is in the order you want reflected in the other areas.
This could either be the Main Mixer, the sequencer or the rack.
2. Use the “Select All” Edit menu item.
This menu item would be “Select All Devices” if the rack is selected, or “Select All Channels” if the mixer is se-
lected. You could also select channels, tracks or devices manually.
3. Select the “Sort Selected Device Groups” Edit menu item.
Channels, devices and tracks will now all be presented in the same order as the area you selected in the first step.
Copying and duplicating channels
Cut, Copy and Paste functions
Selected channels can be moved or copied using the “Cut/Copy/Paste Channels and Tracks” functions on the Edit
menu or channel strip context menu. This allows you to copy one or several channels from one Song document to an-
other. The following rules apply:
D Cut and Copy affects all selected channels, and behaves according to the standard procedures.
Cut moves the channels to the clipboard while Copy creates copies of the channels on the clipboard.
D If the “Auto-group Devices and Track” option is activated on the Options menu, this will copy the channel’s en-
tire Device Group, including tracks and clips - see “About Device Groups”.
D When pasting, channels will be added to the left in the Main Mixer.
If a channel is selected when pasting, the copied channel(s) will be inserted to the right of the selected channel.
