title: Ranges and Marks List
---
-
-
<p>
-
The <dfn>Ranges & Marks List</dfn> is a tab in the <dfn>Editor
-
Lists</dfn> area on the right of the Editor window. If the editor
-
list area isn't visible it can be enabled by checking
-
<kbd class="option">View > Show Editor List</kbd>.
-
The Ranges & Marks list can be used as a single point
-
of control for all range and location markers (including the punch and
-
loop ranges), or as a supplement to other methods of working with them.

The <kbd class="menu">—</kbd> (subtract) button in front of each

user-defined range or marker in the list allows that particular item to
-
be removed. The name fields of custom ranges and markers can be edited.

</p>

<p>
-
The <kbd class="option">Hide</kbd> checkboxes make markers and ranges invisible

+<p>
Selecting <kbd class="option">Lock</kbd> prevents the respective marker
-
from being moved until unlocked.
-
Where applicable, <kbd class="option">Glue</kbd> fixes the marker position
-
relative to the current musical position expressed in bars and beats, rather
-
than the absolute time. This will make the respective marker follow
-
changes in the tempo map.

<p>

At the bottom of the list are buttons to add new markers or ranges.

<dl>
-
<dt>Loop/Punch Ranges</dt>
-
<dd>This list shows the current <dfn>loop</dfn> and <dfn>punch</dfn> range
-
settings. Since these are built-in ranges, you cannot rename or remove them.</dd>
-
<dt>Markers (Including CD Index)</dt>
-
<dd>This section lists the session's <dfn>markers</dfn>. By ticking <kbd
-
class="option">CD</kbd>, you instruct Ardour to create a <dfn>CD track
-
index</dfn> from this marker, which will be included in the TOC or CUE file when you
-
export.</dd>
-
<dt>Ranges (Including CD Track Ranges)</dt>
-
<dd>This is the list of <dfn>ranges</dfn> (including <dfn>CD track
-
ranges</dfn>). Ticking <kbd class="option">CD</kbd> will convert
-
the range to a <dfn>CD track</dfn>, which will again be included in
-
exported TOC or CUE files. This is relevant for Disk-At-Once recordings
-
that may contain audio data between tracks.</dd>
