All tracks types except Chord and Folder tracks have automation lanes available.

Audio Track#

An Audio Track contains audio regions and can be used for recording and playing back audio clips.

Audio FX Track#

Audio FX tracks can be used for effects by sending audio signals to them with Aux 보내기.

Audio FX track#

A common use case is to create a separate Audio FX track with a reverb plugin and to send audio from another track to it. This way, the reverb signal can be managed separately from its source, or even be shared among several tracks.

Audio Group Track#

Audio group tracks can be used for grouping audio signals together via direct routing. For example, kicks, snares and hihats can be routed to a “Drums” audio group track so you can add effects and control their volume collectively instead of separately.

Group tracks are foldable.

Chord Track#

The Chord Track contains chord and scale objects that are used to specify when the song is using a particular chord or scale. Its main purpose is to assist with chord progressions.

For more information about chords, see the section 코드 및 스케일.

For editing chords inside chord regions, see Chord Editor.

Live Audition#

You can route the output of the chord track to a MIDI or Instrument track for live auditioning of the chord track’s events. You can also play the chords live with a MIDI keyboard.

Folder Track#

Folder tracks are used to organize tracks.

Folder track with a MIDI FX track as a child#

To move tracks inside folder tracks, simply select the tracks you want and drag-and-drop them inside the folder track.

Clicking the folder button will hide and expand the folder track’s children.

Audio/MIDI group tracks are also foldable.

Instrument Track#

The instrument track is used for synths and other instruments. Instrument tracks contain a special instrument slot in the mixer that will get processed after the MIDI FX section and before the Inserts section.

Instrument track with a MIDI region#

Instrument tracks are similar to MIDI tracks, except that they produce audio instead of MIDI.

Marker Track#

The marker track holds song markers - either custom or pre-defined ones - that make it easier to jump to or to export specific sections of the song. Each project can only have one marker track and it cannot be deleted (but can be hidden).

Master Track#

The master track is a special type of Audio Group Track that Zrythm uses to route the resulting audio signal after all the processing is done to the audio backend.

Modulator Track#

The modulator track is a special track that is used for global modulators like LFOs and macro knobs that can be assigned to any automatable control inside Zrythm.

MIDI Track#

A MIDI track contains MIDI regions and its purpose is playing back MIDI events and routing those MIDI signals to other instruments (including external instruments and hardware).

MIDI tracks, unlike instrument tracks, produce MIDI output and so their channel strips will only have MIDI effects (plugins that change MIDI signals).

MIDI tracks also have automation lanes for automating various parameters.

MIDI Group Track#

These are similar to Audio Group tracks, except that they act on MIDI signals instead of audio signals.

Tempo Track#

The tempo track is a special track that allows automating the BPM and time signature.
