8 Working in the Editor
The editor, located below the timeline, is where you edit
Real and Software Instrument regions. You can edit each
type of region in a variety of ways.
In the editor, Real Instrument regions appear as audio waveforms. Software Instrument
regions appear as either a graphic note display, or as music notation, depending on
which view you select. For both Real and Software Instrument regions, the editor
features a beat ruler to help you make precise edits, and a playhead which you can lock
to the timeline playhead, or unlock to see a different part of the project in the editor.
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to:
 Select a single region or multiple regions
 Edit Real Instrument regions in the editor (by moving, cropping, and joining them)
 Enhance the tuning and timing of Real Instrument tracks
 Edit notes and controller information in a Software Instrument region
Selecting Regions
In order to edit a region in the editor, you first select the region in the timeline.
To select a region, do one of the following:
 Select a single region by clicking it.
 Select multiple regions by Shift-clicking.
 Drag from a point before the first region to a point after the last one to select the
regions in between.
