"Delete objects" mode
If the "Delete objects" mode is activated, the mouse pointer
turns into an eraser. In this mode, objects can be deleted from
the project.
In Standard mode you can also select an object and press the Del
key on your keyboard to delete it.

Draw volume curve mouse mode
With the Draw volume curve mode you can "draw" any
volume curve using the mouse.
This allows you to "draw" any volume curve using the mouse. This
way, you can create irregular volume progressions quickly.
To delete volume curve points, double-click on the corresponding
point or simply click on the point in "Eraser" mode (view page 42).
You can delete several points by holding the Shift key and clicking
the first and last points so that all points in between are selected.
Selected volume points have a blue frame. You can now delete the
points with the Del key.
Wave drawing mode
Repair short distortions such as crackling directly in the
wave form of the audio file by using the Wave drawing
mode. Such distortions usually only last a few sample
values, so you can use the mouse and try to draw along the
original waveform without the distortion.
There is an automatic zoom function in the wave form display when
you switch into the Wave drawing mode, so sample values become
visible.
Warning: Unlike other editing of the master track which only affects
the project, this mode lets you work directly with the Wave audio file,
i.e. on the recorded raw material, which is changed directly and
permanently. Create a backup copy to undo changes. Back up
copies are created automatically when working with MP3 and other
compressed formats, since such files have to be converted into the
Wave format for this function.
