Renaming and colorizing tracks and regions

Before you get down to some serious audio editing, you may want to rename your tracks and regions so that they are consistent.

You can rename a region either by changing your left-click tool from the Pointer to the Text tool. With the Text tool, you can then simply select the name on the region and type in the new name. Even easier, after selecting the region with the Pointer tool, just press Shift + N.

Alternatively, with the region selected, you can click on the name in the Region Inspector and do it there.

In the following screenshot, you see that my track names and region names are not consistent with each other, nor are their colors:

Figure 4.4 – Inconsistent track/region names and colors

On track 1, I want the region to have the track name, while on the other tracks I want each track to have the region name and I want the region's colors to be the track's colors.

Easy-peasy.
