Flattening the Arranger Chain

When you have set up an arranger chain that you like, and you are sure that you do not want to edit it any more, you can convert it into a linear project.

Prerequisite

You have saved a copy of the project before flattening the arranger chain.

Note

Flattening the arranger chain may remove events and parts from the project. Only use Flatten when you are sure that you do not want to edit the arranger track/chain any more. If in doubt, save a copy of the project before flattening the arranger chain.

Procedure

  1. Select the arranger chain that you want to convert into a linear project.
  2. Optional: Click Flatten (with Options & Preferences).
  3. Optional: Activate the desired flattening options.
    Note

    If you realize that you want to do further adjustments, click Go Back. The activated flatten options are kept.

  4. Click Flatten.

Result

The events and parts in the project are reordered, repeated, resized, moved and/or deleted, so that they correspond exactly to the arranger chain.
