- <title>Soloing Tracks</title>
- <para>
- "Soloing" a track refers to changing some aspect of the signal flow
- through Ardour that makes it possible to listen to one (or just a few)
- tracks at a time. It is often done during mixing and mastering to help
- an audio engineer listen carefully to parts of the mix.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Tracks may be soloed at any time. When one or more tracks are soloed,
- all non-soloedntracks will no longer be audible.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Soloing tracks does not affect the solo status of busses, nor vice
- versa. That is, soloing a track leaves all busses audible and soloing
- a track leaves all tracks "audible". You may not actually be able to
- hear the "audible" material if it is routed through a non-soloed bus.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- This design is intended to allow FX busses and master outs to be
- useful even when soloing. Soloing is made significantly more complex
- by the presence of control outs (see control_outs_soloing for more
- details on soloing with control outs).

- <title>Rude Solo Light</title>
