An audio track header section
</figcaption>

<p>
A typical control area or <dfn>track header</dfn> for an audio track is
shown below:
At the top-left of the controls is the name of the track, which can be
edited by double-clicking on it. The new name must be unique within the
session.
</p>
<img src="/images/typical-audio-track-controls.png" alt="audio track controls" />
<p>
Underneath the name is the track's main level fader. Changing it will affect
the whole track :
</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd class="mouse">dragging</kbd> will change the fader's value as
per the mouse's position</li>
<li><kbd class="mod1 mouse">clicking</kbd> will set the fader to &minus;&infin;
</li>
<li><kbd class="mod3 mouse">clicking</kbd> will reset the fader to its original
0dB position.</li>
</ul>
<p>
An audio track has the same
<a href="@@bus-controls">controls as a bus</a>, with the
addition of two extras.
On the right-hand side of the headers are level meters for the outputs of the track
(1 level per output).
</p>
<p>
The control buttons are:
</p>
<table class="dl">
<tr><th id="record" style="color:red;font-weight:bold;">[&bull;]</th>
<td><dfn>Record</dfn>&mdash;The button with the pink circle arms the track
for recording. When armed, the entire button will turn pink, and change to
bright red as soon as the transport is rolling and the track is recording.</td></tr>
<tr><th id="playlist">p</th>
<td><dfn>Playlist</dfn>&mdash;Opens a playlist menu when clicked. The menu
offers various operations related to the track's <a
href="/working-with-playlists/">playlist</a>.
</td></tr>
<tr><th id="record"><kbd style="color:red;">&#9679;</kbd> (Record)</th>
<td>The button with the pink circle arms the track
for recording. When armed, the entire button will turn pink, and change to
bright red as soon as the transport is rolling and the track is recording.
<kbd class="mouse">Right</kbd> clicking will allow to en/disable Rec-safe,
protecting the track against accidental recording.</td></tr>
<tr><th id="mute"><kbd>M</kbd> (Mute)</th>
<td>Mutes the track. <kbd class="mouse">Right</kbd> clicking displays
a menu which dictates what particular parts of the track should be muted.</td></tr>
<tr><th id="solo"><kbd>S</kbd> (Solo)</th>
<td>Soloes the track. The behaviour of the solo system
is described in detail in the section <a href="@@muting-and-soloing">Muting and Soloing</a>.
<kbd class="mouse">Right</kbd> clicking will allow to en/disable Solo isolate
and Solo safe.</td></tr>
<tr><th id="playlist"><kbd>P</kbd> (Playlist)</th>
<td>Opens a playlist menu when clicked. The menu
offers various operations related to the track's <a href="@@playlists">playlist</a>.</td></tr>

<td>Opens the automation menu for the
track. For details see <a href="@@automation">Automation</a>.</td></tr>
<tr><th id="group"><kbd>G</kbd> (Group)</th>
<td>Allows to assign the track to an existing or a
new group. For details see <a href="@@track-and-bus-groups">Track and bus groups</a>.</td></tr>
