Audio layering is incredibly useful for any situation where you’re combining pieces of multiple takes together to create a single VO, audio vocal track, or dramatic performance, as you can choose which pieces to prioritize via their superimposed position in the track, while you’re preserving the other takes underneath in case you want them later.

Mixer
The Audio Mixer provides a set of graphical controls you can use to assign track channels to output channels, adjust EQ and Dynamics, set levels and record automation, pan stereo and surround audio, and mute and solo tracks, all while you continue to edit.
The Audio Mixer exposes a set of channel strips with controls that correspond to the tracks in the Timeline, one for each track, plus a Master strip corresponding to the Master audio track in the Timeline, that lets you choose the number of audio channels to output, and also lets you adjust the overall level of the mix.
