<p>
This lists the tracks and busses that are present in the session. The list order
reflects the order in the editor, and track or bus names can be dragged-and-dropped
in the editor list to re-order them in the editor. The columns in the list
represent the following:
</p>
<table class="dl">
<tr>
<th id="visible">V</th>
<td>
Whether the track or bus is visible; they can be hidden, in which case they
will still play, but just not be visible in the editor; this can be useful for
keeping the display uncluttered.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="cue">C</th>
<td>
Whether the track is visiable on the Cue page, in which case it can be used
for non-linear sequencing in the Cue window, but any content in the track
visible in the Editor window will not be played.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="active">A</th>
<td>
Whether the track or bus is active; inactive tracks will not play, and
will not consume any CPU.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="input">I</th>
<td>
For MIDI tracks, whether the MIDI input is enabled; this dictates whether
MIDI data from the track's input ports will be passed through the track.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="record">R</th>
<td>Whether the track is record-enabled.</td></tr>
<tr>
<th id="record-safe">RS</th>
<td>
Whether the track is record safe; a record safe track cannot be armed for
recording, to protect against a mistake.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="mute">M</th>
<td>Whether the track is muted.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="solo">S</th>
<td>Track solo state.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th id="solo-isolated">SI</th>
<td>Track solo-isolated state.</td></tr>
<tr>
<th id="solo-safe">SS</th>
<td>Solo safe state. </td></tr>
</table>
<p class="note">
Each icon in these columns can be clicked to toggle the track/bus state, which
is a very fast way to set multiple tracks/busses state at once.
</p>
<p>
As with the region list, hovering the mouse pointer over a column heading shows
a tool-tip which can be handy to remember what the columns are for.
