<p>It is very useful to be able to tag different locations in a session for use when editing and mixing. Ardour supports both <code>locations</code>, which define specific single positions in time and <code>ranges</code> which define a start and end position in time. </p>
<p>In addition to the standard location markers there are also 3 kinds of special markers:</p>
<dl class="narrower-table">
<dt>CD markers</dt>
<dd>locations that are restricted to legal CD track boundaries, and be used to add track marks/info to compact disc (CD) images.</dd>
<dt>Loop range</dt>
<dd>a range used to define transport loop start and end points.</dd>
<dt>Punch range</dt>
<dd>a range used to define start and/or end points for punch recording</dd>
</dl>
