Records one studio cut of this composition: when and where it was made, who<br />
played on it, and which record it appears on, if any. Belongs on a page in the<br />
<code>Song:</code> namespace — see [[PickiPedia:Compositions]].<br />

A composition cut twice carries two of these — different day, different lineup,<br />
often a different arrangement. That is the point of the composition being the<br />
page: [[Song:Barlows]] is one tune with two cuts, not two pages that happen to<br />
share a name.<br />
<br />
=== Parameters ===<br />
* '''blockheight''' and '''studio''' – what identifies the cut. Two sessions do not happen in the same studio at the same block height, and a block height is a moment nobody has to agree on the name of.<br />
* '''cut''' – an explicit identifier, if for some reason the pair above will not do.<br />
* '''recorded''', '''engineer''' – about the session.<br />
* '''record''' – the record it was cut for. '''Optional''': plenty is cut in a studio that never lands on an album, and a cut with no record is still a cut.<br />
* '''number''' – its position on that record.<br />
* '''Any other parameter''' is read as a musician: the parameter is their name, the value is what they played, comma-separated.<br />
<br />
=== Identifying a cut ===<br />
With no block height and no explicit identifier, the record's name is used<br />
instead. That is a '''placeholder, not an identity'''. Two records carrying the<br />
same performance cannot be told they are the same cut that way, which is<br />
exactly what the block height is for. Imported cuts arrive like this, because<br />
the session data they come from has no block heights in it; filling one in is<br />
an improvement to the page.<br />
<br />
=== What it records ===<br />
One [[Help:Subobjects|subobject]] per musician, carrying <code>Has cut</code>,<br />
<code>Has performer</code> and <code>Has instrument</code> — one per musician<br />
rather than one per cut, because a subobject holds a set of values and not a<br />
set of pairs, and the name and the instrument have to share one to stay<br />
attached to each other.<br />
<br />
Plus one for the appearance, carrying <code>Has cut</code>,<br />
<code>Has record</code> and <code>Has track number</code>. A cut that turns up<br />
somewhere else as well — a compilation, a reissue — says so with<br />
{{tl|Cut appears on}} rather than being written out a second time.<br />
