The Undo Button
The Undo button becomes
active whenever you move
or modify a target pitch
contour object. Clicking the
Undo button once will undo
the most recent change. If you have made
multiple changes, you can continue to click
Undo to undo additional changes up to the
limit that you set in the Options dialog.
The Redo Button
The Redo button becomes
active whenever you have
executed at least one Undo.
Clicking the Redo button once
will redo the most recent undone change. If
you have executed multiple undos, you can
continue to click Redo to redo additional
changes up to the limit that you set in the
Options dialog.
The Snap To Note
Button
Press this button to enable
Snap To Note mode when
using the Line Tool or
moving Note objects. In Snap To Note mode,
each line segment will automatically snap
to the nearest semitone and Notes can only
be moved to exact semitones (or exact scale
notes for microtonal scales).
Pressing the Shift key on your keyboard
while drawing a line or moving a Note object
temporarily toggles the state of the Snap To
Note button. I.e., if Snap To Note mode is not
enabled, pressing Shift will enable it for as long
as Shift is pressed. Conversely, if Snap To Note
mode is enabled, pressing Shift will disable it
for as long as Shift is pressed.
The Select All Button
The Select All button causes
all correction objects, whether
currently visible on the Pitch
Graph view or not, to become
selected.
The Cut And Copy Buttons
The Cut and Copy buttons
become active whenever one
or more correction objects are
selected. Cut removes selected
objects. Both Cut and Copy copy
selected objects to the Auto-
Tune 8 clipboard. You can then
paste the objects elsewhere in
the Pitch Graph display.
The Paste Button
The Paste button becomes
active whenever one or more
objects have been Cut or Copied
to the clipboard.
To paste object(s) from the clipboard:
•
Navigate to the general area where you
want to paste the object(s.)
•
Click the Paste button (the cursor will turn
into the Paste cursor).
•
Press and hold your left (or only) mouse
button. A graphic representation of the
object(s) to be pasted will appear.
•
While holding down the mouse button, drag
the objects to the exact location where you
wish to paste them.
•
Once they are at the proper location, release
the mouse button to complete the paste.
NOTE: Since only one correction
object (Line, Curve, or Note) can
exist at any time point on the Pitch
Graph, any object(s) that previously existed
at the time where an object is pasted will be
deleted. Hence, before you complete the paste,
be sure that the area you’re pasting into does
not contain any correction object(s) that you
want to keep.
A TIP: When pasting an object, the
object retains the Retune Speed(s)
of the originally copied object. That
speed may or may not be appropriate for
the pitch data at the object’s new location.
Observe the resulting green output pitch curve
and adjust the Retune Speed as necessary.
