After the option is enabled, you can move clips on top of each other without creating new
layers. To move overlapping clips back into separate layers, use the Rebuild command (see
below).
Note 1 : if you want to move a clip to the exact same time placement in an adjacent layer,
hold the Shift key down while you drag.
Note 2 : if the Automatic Crossfades button is enabled, SONAR adds a crossfade between any
newly overlapped clips that are on the same layer.
To Mute or Unmute One or More Layers
• On the Track Scale, click the M button that’s at the same vertical level as the layer you
want to mute or unmute. You can drag across mutiple mute buttons to mute or unmute
multiple layers.
Note : if you mute a layer and then disable the Show Layers feature, the Track Scale displays
a small blue indicator to show that a hidden layer is muted:
To Solo or Unsolo a Layer
• On the Track Scale, click the S button that’s at the same vertical level as the layer you
want to solo. You can solo one layer at a time.
Note : if you solo a layer and then disable the Show Layers feature, the Track Scale displays
a small yellow indicator to show that a hidden layer is soloed:
