New tracks in Ardour are assigned a random color from a pastel color
|
|
palette, so they should never end up being particularly bright or
|
|
particularly dark.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Changing the color of specific tracks</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Select the tracks whose color you wish to change. Context-click
|
|
on the track header of one of them. From the context menu, select
|
|
<kbd class="menu">Color</kbd> and pick a hue to your taste in the
|
|
color dialog. Every selected track will be
|
|
re-colored.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that if you are only changing one track, context-clicking on
|
|
that track's header will be enough to select it, saving the extra
|
|
mouse click.
|
|

<h2>Changing the color of all tracks in a group</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Tracks that belong to a
|
|
<a href="/working-with-tracks/track-and-bus-groups/">track/bus group</a>
|
|
can share a common color by enabling the <kbd
|
|
class="option">Color</kbd> option for the group. With this enabled,
|
|
any color change will be propagated to all group members.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can also explicitly change the group color by context-clicking
|
|
on the group tab in the Mixer, selecting <kbd class="menu">Edit
|
|
Group...</kbd> and then clicking on the Color selector in that dialog
|
|
that is displayed.
