Editing Tracks in SubSections

In addition to editing SubSections as events, you’ll probably want to edit SubSections in greater detail by viewing all the tracks within each SubSection and editing the MIDI data in each track. As with Section tracks, you can view and gain access to SubSection MIDI and Audio tracks in the Tracks window

If a track contains SubSections, selecting that track in the Tracks window causes a SubSections pop-up menu to appear in the upper left portion of the window. The SubSections pop-up shows the number of SubSections contained within the selected track; clicking this pop-up shows all the available SubSections within the selected track. When you select the SubSection you want to work on, all the tracks in it appear in the Tracks window, which temporarily becomes a SubSection Tracks window.

To edit tracks in SubSections:

  1. Open the Tracks window, if it’s not already open, by choosing Tracks from the Windows menu or typing Command-K.

  2. Select the track that contains the SubSections you want to edit by clicking on the Track Number or Name.

Notice the SubSection popup menu appears in the upper portion of the Tracks window displaying the number of SubSections contained in the selected track.

  1. Click and hold the mouse on the SubSections popup menu.

  2. Choose the SubSection you want to work on, then release the mouse.

Notice the name of the Tracks window changes to the name of the SubSection you selected and the window lists all the tracks in that SubSection.

Notice the SubSection pop-up menu has now turned to a button titled with the name of the Section containing the SubSection. To get back to the Tracks window for that Section, just click on the button.
