Hello,

I wonder if it's possible to separate different recordings on one track to an accordingly number of layers without having recorded them in layers. I've only begun to comprehend the concept of layers in full only now and like to know wether I can comp older recordings that way.

In case I didn't make myself clear enough yet: I know that you have to record on new layers in order to comp the best possible track out of a number of recordings lateron (meanwhile I know, that is). But: Is there a way to do the same when you did not record on separate layers from the very start?? I haven't found one, so if anybody did, please share.

You can «add a layer» to a track, then copy any audio on this layer. But it's not very practical, as you can't move the content in the layer once it's been copied in (I will request this feature).
