Option-click the Solo button. Click the Solo button again to unsolo the track, bus, or
submix.

When you export a project, all unmuted tracks, busses, and submixes are included in the
exported file. If you export a track, bus, or submix that is muted (including being muted
by having another track soloed), the exported file contains no audio.

Enabling Track Channel Strips for Recording

for recording, audio will be recorded on the track when you click the Record button in
the transport controls. You can’t record to a bus or output channel strip.

overall mix.

Click the channel strip’s name (at the top of the channel strip) to select it, then type a

Changing a Channel Strip Icon

You can change the icon of a channel strip. Icons do not affect the sound, but are useful
as a quick visual reference for the channel strip, particularly for projects with many tracks,
busses, or submixes.
