This must drive new folks mad. You would have to read the manual to have any idea how to fix this. Or you just have to be around here for a long time.

There are actually 8 Legacy tracks which can be controlled via Bar Settings (F5). The fact that the names of the tracks don't always agree between the bar settings window and the mixer window is makes it even more confusing.

Then you have the 16 Utility tracks. None of these appear in Bar Settings. You have to control these via the audio edit window.

So you either have to move you "vocal track" to one of the 8 legacy tracks to use F5 or you need to use audio edit.

Clear as mud?
