Which of the following is true of tracks that use explicit voice assignments?

• A. The tracks will always be heard in the mix (unless muted)
• B. The tracks' Voice selectors will read 'Dyn'
• C. Tracks that share the same voice will share Solo and muted status
• D. Playback of tracks that share voices will depend on the track priority

Answer: (D)

Voice assignment in Pro Tools lets you map tracks to fixed voice slots, so the playback engine can manage polyphony when multiple tracks use the same voice. When several tracks share a single voice, playback is resolved by track priority—highest-priority active track that claims the voice will drive the audio, while the others sharing that voice don’t produce audible output. That is why this statement is true: how you hear tracks that share voices depends on the priority order you've set for those tracks.

The other ideas don’t hold generally. A track isn’t guaranteed to be heard just because it’s assigned a voice—if another track with a higher priority is using that same voice, the audio from the lower-priority track can be silent. The label or display of a track’s voice isn’t fixed to read something like “Dyn,” and sharing a voice doesn’t force solo or mute statuses to be shared across tracks.
