Auditioning an Audiopath

All audiopaths in the project tree as separate components are available in the Audiopath List in the Transport Options toolbar, along with the standard audiopaths. When you select an audiopath in the list, it becomes the default audiopath for playback of all components within DirectMusic Producer, except segments that have embedded audiopaths.

The following figure shows the Audiopath list with the standard audiopaths and a custom audiopath called My Audiopath.

Audiopath List

When you switch from one audiopath to another, changes are applied to all PChannels. Any PChannels not included in mix groups in the new audiopath are silent during playback.

To ensure that a segment always plays on a particular audiopath, put the audiopath inside the segment in the project tree. See Embedding an Audiopath in a Segment.
