simulate multi-cam in the basic version? . (Vegas Movie Studio 13 BA

Can you give me the basics of how to simulate multi-cam in the basic version?
I add my two video files to the workspace. Then I drag both to the timeline below.
But now I have 2 audio tracks. How can I delete one of them? (One is much better, and it will be the entire soundtrack)
Please tell me exactly what to click and press. (Vegas Movie Studio 13 BASIC)

Do I then turn off AutoRipple? I can use split to delete and create a gap, correct?
When the upper video has a gap, the lower video will be shown, right?
After I cut the gaps in the top video, I can then just render the new video?

Also, what's the easiest way to SYNCH up the 2 tracks?

They are filmed of the same event, but one starts a few seconds after the other.

I need to stagger them, so they are on exactly the same time in the timeline.

Syncing the two tracks is easy by watching and listening to the audio of both tracks. Move one track till echoing is gone. When both tracks are in sync, just mute in the track list the audio of the track with the lowest quality.

Learn how to use "Takes" in Movie Studio which is a great base for multicam editing.

"Takes" is no feature in the Basic version of Moviestudio. For my opinion, when editing advanced video projects, you should also use at least a "goodenough" version of Moviestudio.

I just did using Takes in the basic version of Movie Studio 13. It works fine.

Than I misinterpreted the comparison list.

Alternative 2cam editing workaround with Moviestudio (without using multicam feature):

I know, but I couldn't find a comparison list of Moviestudio 13 features. Also a feature which is not available in MS14, will be most probably also not available in MS13. But as said, I misinterpreted the feature comparison list of the different MS14 versions.
