Filtering Lanes

Playlists view lets you view the main playlist in the track, and also any alternate playlists associated with the track. Alternate playlists are displayed directly below the track in Playlist lanes.

You can edit alternate playlists in Playlists view just like the main playlist in Waveform view. In Playlists view, edits that are applied to range selections are applied to all shown alternate playlists. Alternate playlists that are not shown are not affected.

Before starting work with Track Compositing, duplicate the track’s Main Playlist to keep it intact as a backup alternate playlist.

Clip groups are not supported in Playlists Track View.

To view the Playlist lanes for a track:

From the Track View selector, select Playlists.

\

You can also Control-Alt-click (Windows) or Command-Control-click (Mac) the Playlist selector to toggle between Playlists view and Waveform view.

If the track does not contain any alternate playlists in addition to the main playlist, only a single, empty Playlist lane is shown under the main playlist. You can drag and drop audio to this lane from the Clip List, DigiBase Browsers, or other audio tracks to create an alternate playlist for the track, in addition to the main playlist.

 

Dropping audio from Clip List to create an alternate playlist

If the track contains one or more alternate playlists in addition to the main playlist, they are displayed in lanes under the main playlist. Regardless, the bottom Playlist lane is always empty and can be used for adding clips to create new alternate playlists.
