Using custom colors
You can create and assign different color schemes to different clips,
tracks or groups to make it easier to find your way through the Montage:
• To assign a color scheme to a track, open the Track menu and select a
color scheme from the Color submenu.
The selected color scheme is used for all current clips on the track, as well as for clips you
add later on. However, note that this color selection is overridden by the group and clip colors.
• To assign a color scheme to a group, use the “Color selected group” op-
tions in the Grouping menu on the Groups tab (see “Coloring groups” on
page 491).
The group color (if other than default) supersedes the track colors, but is overridden by in-
dividual clip color scheme selections.
• To assign a color scheme to an individual clip, right click on the clip to
bring up the clip speed menu, and select a color scheme from the Color
submenu.
Clip color selections (if other than default) override track and group color selections.
• The Lock and Mute colors override all color settings above.
If a clip is both locked and muted, the Mute color is used.
It’s also possible to have different color schemes automatically applied to
different clips, according to their names or properties of their audio files.
This is described in the section “Automatic coloring – Setting up condi-
tions” on page 742.
