Special Types of Instruments
In addition to the normal instruments which are described in the Instruments section
(see “MIDI Instruments” on page 123), there are two other possible track settings for
which there is no corresponding Environment Object:
No Output
Tracks assigned as No Output send no data. This can be useful in situations where you
wish to store data (such as SysEx) that you don’t wish to send.
Folder
This setting is used when you want the track to play a folder (see “Overview” on
page 152). Normal Regions will not play on a track set to the Folder instrument.
Zooming Individual Tracks
Tracks in the Arrange window can be zoomed individually. In addition, all MIDI or all
audio tracks can be zoomed as a group. In this way, you could, for example, zoom in on
an individual track to edit it’s Regions with Hyper Draw, or zoom in on all Audio
Regions to get a more detailed view of the waveform displays.
Zooming on a Track
Move the mouse in the Track List to the bottom left corner of a track. The mouse
pointer will change to an index finger. You can now zoom in or out on this track—the
zoom factor, compared to the normal settings in the Arrange window, will be shown in
the help tag while zooming.
Auto Track Zoom
The function View > Auto Track Zoom automatically enlarges the currently selected
track.
Zooming all MIDI/Audio Tracks
Hold Command when zooming a MIDI or audio track. This zooms all tracks of the same
type.
Restoring Individual Zoom Settings
When zooming on a track, hold Shift down.
Zoom Setting Key Commands
The Individual Track Zoom In/Out key command adjusts the display of the selected track.
The Individual Track Zoom Reset key command resets the selected track to the global
(default) zoom factor.
The Individual Track Zoom Reset for all Tracks key command resets all tracks to the global
(default) zoom factor.
