To record enable MIDI and Instrument tracks
using the Up/Down Arrows:
■ While pressing Control (Windows) or Com-
mand (Mac), press the Up/Down Arrows to
record enable the previous or next MIDI or In-
strument track. The previous (or next) record
track is no longer record-enabled.
To record enable all audio, or all MIDI and
Instrument tracks:
