Undo/Redo
Cubase AI offers wide-ranging, multiple Undo, allowing
you to undo virtually any action you perform.
• To undo the last performed action, select Undo from the
Edit menu, or use the corresponding key command (by
default [Ctrl]/[Command]+[Z]).
If you select Undo again, the previously performed action will be undone,
and so on.
• To redo the last undone action, select Redo from the
Edit menu or use the corresponding key command (by de-
fault [Ctrl]/[Command]+[Shift]+[Z]).
Undone actions will be available for Redo until you perform another action
(at which point the “Redo Stack” is cleared – see “History…” below).
History…
The Edit History window contains a graphic representa-
tion of the “Undo Stack” (the performed actions, with the
most recent action at the top of the stack) and the “Redo
Stack” (the undone actions, with the most recently un-
done action at the bottom of the stack). The two stacks
are separated by a divider line.
The Edit History dialog allows you to undo or redo several
actions in one go, by moving the divider between the Undo
Stack and the Redo Stack (in essence, moving actions
from the Undo Stack to the Redo Stack, or vice versa).
Cut/Copy/Paste
You can cut or copy selected events (or selection ranges)
and paste them in again at the current cursor position on
the original track(s).
Paste at Origin
This will paste an event at its original position, i.e. where it
was originally cut or copied from.
Delete
This will delete all selected events.
Split at Cursor
This splits selected events at the cursor position. If no
events are selected, all events on all tracks intersected by
the cursor will be split.
Split Loop
This splits all events at the left and right locator positions.

tions:

available with the “Maximum Undo” setting on the
General page in the Preferences on the File menu.

Cut Time Cuts out the selection range and moves it to the clip-
board. Events to the right of the removed range are
moved to the left to fill out the gap.
Delete Time The selection range is removed and events to the right
are moved to the left to fill out the gap.
Paste Time Pastes the clipboard data at the start position and track

Existing events are moved to make room for the pasted

data.
Split Splits any events or parts that are intersected by the se-
lection range, at the positions of the selection range
edges.
Crop All events or parts that are partially within the selection
range are cropped, that is sections outside the selection
range are removed, leaving only events that are fully in-
side or outside the selection range.
Insert Silence Inserts empty track space at the start of the selection
range. The length of the inserted silence equals the
length of the selection range. Events to the right of the
selection range start are moved to the right to “make
room”. Events that are intersected by the selection range
start are split, and the right section is moved to the right.
Option Description
All Selects all events in the window.
None Deselects all events.
