Tutorial 2: Editing Audio
3. With all the events selected, click and drag them to
bar 1.
4. Click on an empty area of the Project window so that
no event is selected.
Copying events
Copying can be used to copy an event to another area in
the Project window. If you want to make several copies in
one go, see “Repeating” on page 35.
Using Copy and Paste
1. To copy an audio event, click on the desired event and
choose “Copy” from the Edit menu.
In our case let’s choose the “Elec Guitar_01” event.
2. Position the cursor at the point in the project that you
wish the copy to be made.
We’ll put our cursor at bar 17.
3. Make sure you click on the track that you want the
copied event to be copied to. Choose “Paste” from the
Edit menu.
It is possible that you may have another track selected. If so the “Paste”
command would paste it to a different track. Always note the track you
have selected before choosing “Paste”.
4. Now we have two guitar events. Note that we also
copied the takes that were on the guitar track. We can use
these later.
Using the [Alt]/[Option] key
1. Choose the Object Selection tool and hold down [Alt]/
[Option].
2. We are going to copy the “Guitar 2” events. Remem-
ber that there are three events. Select all of the “Guitar 2”
events by clicking and dragging as described above.
3. Click and hold the selected events and drag to the po-
sition you wish the copy to be made. Then release the
mouse button.
Don’t worry about the “Scissor” icon that appears. As soon as you click
and hold on the event you are copying it switches to an arrow with a “+”
sign indicating that you are copying.
Repeating
Repeats are great for repeating something over and over
directly after the event you want to repeat.
1. Click the bass event with the Object Selection tool.
2. Choose “Repeat” from the Edit menu.
