Auditioning Alternate Playlists

Only the main playlist plays back through the track audio output path. To hear an alternate playlist, you need to solo the Playlist lane. The soloed lane then plays through the track audio output path instead of the main playlist.

To audition an alternate playlist:

1 Click the Solo button for the Playlist lane you want to audition. (Soloing a Playlist lane only solos the playlist in the track, it does not mute any other tracks in the session.)

 

Soloing an alternate playlist

2 Start Pro Tools playback.

Press Shift+S to solo any one Playlist lane containing the Edit cursor. If more than one Playlist lane contains the Edit cursor, the topmost lane is soloed.

Use Start+P and Start+“;” (Windows) or Control+P and Control+“;” (Mac) to move the Edit cursor up and down through Playlist lanes.
