Tracks, Regions, and Arrangement Structure
Tracks organize note and automation regions, and each region acts as a reusable block in the timeline.
Tracks can be selected, muted, soloed, deleted, and filled with regions. Regions carry note content, optional bend events, and optional automation lanes for the nodes linked to that musical part.
To rename a track/group, click the small Settings button on the right side of the track header, edit the name field, then confirm with the check button. The same edit panel can also change the track color or delete the track. You can also right-click a track header to rename or delete it.
To select a track for recording or playback focus, click its header in the track list. Use M to mute a track and S to solo it.
Regions can be moved by dragging them along the grid or between tracks, resized from either edge, duplicated, renamed, recolored, and edited in detail. Trimming the left edge hides earlier notes and automation from playback without deleting them, so expanding the region left later restores that material.
To rename, recolor, or delete a region, click its Settings button, edit the name or color, then confirm with the check button. You can also right-click a region to rename, open the note editor, open the automation editor for a specific parameter, copy, cut, or delete it. Parameters that already contain automation are marked in the automation submenu. When a region is selected, press Cmd+C or Cmd+X on Mac, or Ctrl+C or Ctrl+X on Windows and Linux, to copy or cut it.
To create an empty region, right-click the timeline lane at the point where you want it to begin, then choose Create Region. The new region is placed on the track under the pointer and snaps to the nearest beat.
To paste a copied or cut region, right-click the timeline lane where you want it to land, then choose Paste Region. The pasted region is placed on the track under the pointer and snaps to the nearest measure.
Double-click a region to open its detailed editor.
