6.1 Introduction

Cool Edit Pro is two editors in one; linear and non-linear. You simply toggle between them by clicking the icon at the top left-hand corner of the screen. It changes in appearance depending which mode it is in.

When it shows a stylized view of three tracks you are in the linear single wave view mode, and clicking it will take you to the non-linear multitrack mode.
