No one is going to explain all those for you when they are already in the manual/help file if you want to look them up.

In any case I can’t see hw this approach will help you. Its a bit like going through a Haynes manual in order to learn to drive your car.

Get stuck in, record something, record something else, mixdown. When you hit a brick wall and need to now how to do something, ask us how. Its the best way to learn this stuff, particularly as you are both newbie to recording and newbie to N track.
