Saving and opening ranges / special range commands
Selected ranges can be saved using the "Range" menu or by
pressing "Alt" and one of the function keys "F2-F10" and opened
again with "Ctrl + F2...F10".
"Alt + F4", however, shouldn't be used as it is a Windows keyboard
shortcut for closing windows. Similarly "Alt + F9" is not defined as it is
a 4- Point cut command in Samplitude 11 Producer. However, you
can redefine this keyboard shortcut for Samplitude 11 Producer
whenever you like via "Options" > "Program settings" > "Shortcuts"
and "Edit menu".
You can save and name additional ranges without any restrictions
using Alt + F11.
Further special functions for defining, changing, and using ranges can
be found in the "Range" menu. This includes a range editor dialog
allowing you to enter ranges numerically and the Range Manager for
quick and easy viewing of and jumping to ranges.
Examples for working with ranges
Example 1: You want to move multiple neighboring objects to a new
position. Instead of clicking on each object separately while holding
down the Ctrl key, you can use the mouse to define a range that
contains all objects. Select them by using the function "Object ->
Select objects -> Select objects under the play cursor/range".
Example 2: You wish to remove a section of a song from the VIP
window completely. This may be a verse of a song, for instance, that
should be cut out. You can select the verse in question by dragging
out a range and activating all tracks with a double-click. Then select
"Edit -> More -> Delete with time/ripple" to remove the verse.
Example 3: A selected range can be played as a loop. You can
modify the range borders here. Before making your cuts final, you
can preview the result.
