Chapter 5: Working with Pro Tools LE 41
Track type is indicated by the Track Type icons
just below the faders.
In the Edit window, tracks are displayed hori-
zontally along the Timeline. The area in which
audio appears for each track is the Playlist.
Audio tracks, Auxiliary Inputs, Master Faders,
and MIDI tracks can be automated.
Audio Tracks
Audio tracks, Auxiliary Inputs, and Master Fad-
ers share many identical controls. Master Faders
provide all the same features as audio tracks and
Auxiliary Inputs, with the following exceptions:
Input Selector A Master Fader’s output assign-
ment determines its input, or source (always
outputs 1–2).
