+Above is the main window of MusE, the Arranger, this is what greets you
+when launching MusE. The Arranger consists of two main parts, the Track-pane
+and the Arranger canvas. The Track-pane lists all currently visible tracks
+and the Arranger canvas contains all Parts of the composition. The
+screenshot above shows an empty project. Below is MusE with a song in
+progress, turns out it wasn't a very good song, but for our purposes it
+is fine. In the below screenshot there are a lot of tracks visible in the
+Track-pane, each have an icon which indicate it's type, wave-track, input,
+output etcetera, more about that later. In the Arranger canvas a number of
+parts are visible, the ones in yellow are in this composition wave files,
+the multicolored line are different Parts of a drum track.

+Choosing <SPAN CLASS="textbf">View &gt; Mixer A</SPAN> or <SPAN CLASS="textbf">B</SPAN> from the menu in the main
+window will bring up the mixer as viewed below. The mixer will open with
+all options enabled, showing channel strips for all tracks in the current
+setup, depending on how far you have gotten this view may become very large,
+at which point it may be a good idea to limit what is viewed in the Mixer.
+From the view menu all the different kinds of tracks can be toggled on/off
+from the mixer. Some may find it a good idea to use the two mixers A and B
+setup with different setup and store this in your song template(s), more
+about this in the Song Template section. It can be argued that everything
+in MusE is a track analogous to the Unix idiom that everything is a file.
+The types of tracks visible in the mixer (and track-pane) are:

+There is also a Midi Track variation called Drum Track, they are
+however not distinguishable from Midi Tracks in the Mixer. Also the
+strips for midi tracks are different in the Mixer than in the
+Track-pane view.
