Yes, I understand PR is a clip editor. That's probably why it's so tedious to work with actually. The fact you're basically cutoff from working with content that's just outside the scope of the current clip... I mean, that's just so frustrating yet people seem to have settled for this work flow. I've never understood it as I remember Cakewalk 5's PR, over 20 years ago, didn't impose these limitations and that supported clips just fine.

But the ghost track thing... I get it but that's not the same thing as that information is read only. IMHO, the feature itself is totally hyped and, if you think about it, is almost a work-around for work flow limitations we're currently discussing. I mean, if it were dead easy to switch PR's scope to a different track (again, I'm consciously ignoring the clip thing here), the ability to see another track's data in read-only mode would not be as valuable.

Think about it like this. Imagine you live in a house with 4 rooms. Each room provides a door inside and outside the house. The way thing are now with PR essentially means having to leave the house, walk around the perimeter until you locate the desired door and then reentering. All this just to access any given room inside your house.

I don't know if I can be more clear in terms of how much of a productivity killer this is?

All the best
