# Patching on the Timeline

To patch a source channel to a sequence track:

1. Select a source in the workspace.

   Source track patch identifiers appear in the Patch Panel area for each channel in the source.

2. Create the patch:
   - If the track is patched but no source is assigned, drag on the grey patch identifier until the source channel that you want to use appears.
   - If the track is not patched and no source is assigned, drag on the grey patch identifier until the source channel that you want to use appears and then click the patch identifier.
   - If the track is not patched but a source is assigned, click the grey source channel number on the patch identifier.

   The patch identifier turns green and its source channel number indicates what source you have recorded to the track.
