+ <title>Default Track Names</title>
+ <para>
+ When a track is added to the session it is given a default name based on
+ the Track type. For example, the first audio track that is added to the
+ session will be given the name <literal>Audio 1</literal> and the first
+ bus will be called <literal>Bus 1</literal> and any subsequently added
+ tracks will be consecutively numbered.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Track names determine the names of the files created when recording to a
+ track so it is suggested that meaningful names are given to tracks, see
+ <xref linkend="renaming-tracks"/>
