<p />
The patchbay enables/disables features specific to each track. 
<p />
<code><b>All tracks have a <a class="twikiLink" href="PatchBay">PatchBay</a> with the following row of toggles:</b></code>
<a name="PlayTrack"></a>
<h4><a name="Play"> </a> Play </h4>
<ul>
<li> <img src="../../../pub/Cinelerra/CinelerraImages/program_track_toggles_play.png" alt="program_track_toggles_play.png" />  
</li>
<li> Play track determines whether the track is rendered or not. If it's off, the track is not rendered. However, if the track is chained to any other tracks, the other tracks perform all the effects in the chained track, regardless of play status.
</li>
</ul>
<a name="ArmTrack"></a>
<h4><a name="Arm_Disarm"> </a> Arm / Disarm  </h4>
<ul>
<li> <img src="../../../pub/Cinelerra/CinelerraImages/program_track_toggles_arm.png" alt="program_track_toggles_arm.png" />
</li>
<li> Arm track determines whether the track is armed or not. Only the armed tracks are affected by editing operations. Make sure you have enough armed destination tracks when you paste or splice material or some tracks in the material will get left out.
</li>
</ul>
<p />
<ul>
<li> In addition to restricting editing operations, the armed tracks in combination with the active region determine where material is inserted when loading files. If the files are loaded with one of the insertion strategies which doesn't delete the existing project, the armed tracks will be used as destination tracks.
</li>
</ul>
<a name="GangFader"></a>
<h4><a name="Gang_fader"> </a> Gang fader </h4>
<ul>
<li> <img src="../../../pub/Cinelerra/CinelerraImages/program_track_toggles_gang.png" alt="program_track_toggles_gang.png" />
</li>
<li> Gang fader causes the fader to track the movement of whatever other fader you're adjusting. A fader is only ganged if the arm track is also on. This is normally used to adjust audio levels on all the tracks simultaneously.
</li>
</ul>
<a name="DrawMedia"></a>
<h4><a name="Draw_media"> </a> Draw media </h4>
<ul>
<li> <img src="../../../pub/Cinelerra/CinelerraImages/program_track_toggles_draw.png" alt="program_track_toggles_draw.png" />  
</li>
<li> Draw media determines if thumbnails or waveforms are drawn on the track. By default, some file formats load with this off while other file formats load with it on. This depends on whether the file format takes a long time to draw on the timeline. Merely set it to on if you want to see thumbnails for any file format.
</li>
</ul>
<a name="MuteTrack"></a>
<h4><a name="Mute_track"> </a> Mute track </h4>
<ul>
<li> <img src="../../../pub/Cinelerra/CinelerraImages/program_track_toggles_mute.png" alt="program_track_toggles_mute.png" />
</li>
<li> Mute track causes the output to be thrown away once the track is completely rendered. This happens whether or not play track is on. If the track is part of an effect chain, the output of the effect chain track is overlayed on the final output even though it's routed back to another track. Mute track is used to keep the effect chain track from overlapping the output of the source track.
</li>
</ul>
<p />
<h4><a name="Patch_Bay_Tips"> </a><a name="Patch_Bay_Tips_"> </a> <img src="../../../pub/TWiki/TWikiDocGraphics/tip.gif" border="0" alt="TIP" width="16" height="16" />Patch Bay Tips : </h4>
If the toggle is colored, it is enabled. If the toggle is the background color of most of the windows, it is disabled. Click on the toggle to enable or disable the feature. Several mouse operations speed up the configuration of several tracks at a time.
<p />
<ul>
<li> Click on an attribute and <strong>drag</strong> across adjacent tracks to toggle the same attribute in those tracks.
</li>
</ul>
<p />
<ul>
<li> Hold down <strong>shift</strong> while clicking a track's attribute to toggle the attribute in all the tracks.
</li>
</ul>
<p />
<ul>
<li> Hold down <strong>shift</strong> while clicking an attribute. Click until all the tracks except the selected one are disabled. Then drag the cursor over the adjacent track to enable the attribute in the adjacent track.
</li>
</ul>
