Talk:Audacity Tracks and Clips


 * Ed 29Nov11: given the ongoing talk on "Audio Tracks"... This page only deals with audio tracks its title should reflect that
 * Bill 29Nov11: Yes, this page is about Audio tracks and clips. Perhaps the "Tracks" and "Stereo Tracks" sections should be removed so this page can concentrate on creating and manipulating clips. Should "Channels, Tracks and Clips" be on the Audio Tracks page? The information is important, but might clutter up the Audio Tracks page. The definition of a clip is relevant here, but the definition of a channel is more relevant when talking about splitting and joining tracks/channels.
 * Peter 30Nov11:I've been staring at this page and "Audio Tracks" for a while today and I agree with Bill here. I think we can lose the  "Tracks" and "Stereo Tracks" sections, probaly replacing them with a link to "Audio Tracks".  Also I think that we should try moving the "Channels, Tracks and Clips" section to the Audio Tracks page, I would suggest that we try it as a footnote on that page embedded in a note class div.
 * Peter 2Dec11: Regarding the "Channels, Tracks and Clips" on this page, I'm thinking that "Channel", "Track" and "Clip(s)" may be better as Glossary entries rather than as an introductory section on this page which gets in the way of the "meat" for the reader. We could then put a brief reference and link to the three glossary entries into the intro note.
 * Gale: 03Dec11: The page is about Tracks and Clips, so I think it must define and describe "clips" in more detail than a Glossary should. I do question the validity of the "Channel" bullet. I feel we have not tended to put parts of the Audacity interface in the Glossary, and "channel" (if anything) may be most deserving of a Glossary entry.
 * Bill 03Dec11: Gale, Peter and I have pretty much decided that glossary entries are not appropriate. Unfortunately this discussion is taking place over several pages. That said, please see the talk page for my suggestion for re-working this page. For more of this discussion see Audio Tracks.
