Hi All, I've been following this thread and have a suggestion. How about using the handy dandy "create new track" key command. This way after a newly recorded take (that you want to keep in case you might want to use) you simply create a new track )with the same audio object as instrument), and mute the old one. I find this very useful. You end up with all your takes on multiple tracks with the same instrument layed out chronologically from top to bottom. If you give a track name to that original track, even better. All the subsequent new tracks you create will have the same track name to go with all the alternate takes. -- Eli Krantzberg Nightshift Orchestra Almat Productions
