"Auxiliary tracks are the tracks you use when you are busing things into like a reverb or delay or some, or a compression when you're creating a sub-mix. Now when you're creating a sub-mix or creating one of these buses, what you got to do is you got to use your send. Once you like actually increase the level of the send, it's automatically going to create the bus that that send goes to, you understand. So, what we're going to do is we're going to go into one of our audio tracks. Now you can't do it onto, you can't do it from a, a midi instrument. Because it's not the way they're really done. But once you have an audio track, try to bring some audio into it. So I'm going to just grab maybe a beat real quick. And try to get into my audio window. Now once this dragged what I want to do is I want to create some type of send. So I'm going to bus it to one and increase it. Now once I do this, it's going to send it to bus one. Alright? What I can do is go into my mixer and actually look at where the auxiliary send is. The auxiliary tract is right here, and the send is right here. So this track right here is being sent into this auxiliary track. So when it plays it's going to come out this track as well. And so I, this is like perfect for me if in case I want to like put reverb, or you know, add like a compression onto it. I can do it onto this track."
