Two Simple Questions Regarding X1

Keebo: If I am reading your first question properly, it appears you are looking to create a "Send". It's still easy, and you can have as many as you want.

1: Choose your track and open the inspector (if it isn't already open)
2: Hover your mouse anywhere over the inspector > right click > insert send > choose an existing buss, or create a new one.
(If you have the 1850 page PDF manual - do a search for "insert send" and you will come across the many ways you can do it.)
 
Remember the X1 inspector now shows the track and it's corresponding buss, make sure you hover over the track itself. If you add more than one send, little arrows will appear so you can switch between them.

As for your other question, I don't have an answer. I did see this discussed recently on the forums, but I don't rename clips so I didn't pay close enough attention :) 
 
(EDIT: For changing clip names, look around page 323 of the big PDF manual. Looks like it might get covered near the bottom of that page)

Thanks, codamedia.  I kind of figured it to be there automatically as in 8.5.3 instead of a right click.  Works perfectly.  Thanks.

As far as Clip Properties goes, I am sure it is somewhere other than I am accustomed to.  I am slowly getting the hang of transitioning from 8.5 to X1.

To change multiple track parameters, select the tracks you want to change. Then Ctrl+click on the control to change that control in all selected tracks. This feature is called Quick Groups in the SONAR help.
