Creating MIDI Parts
A MIDI part is automatically created when you record. It contains the recorded
events. However, you can also create empty MIDI parts and later add events to
them.
You can create MIDI parts in the following ways:
• Draw a part on a MIDI track with the Draw tool.
You can also draw parts by pressing [Alt]/[Option] and using the Object
Selection tool.
• Double-click with the Object Selection tool on a MIDI track, between the left
and right locator.
Adding Events to a MIDI Part
• To add events to a MIDI part, use the tools and functions in a MIDI editor.

Creating Audio Parts
There is no way of automatically creating audio parts on recording. On recording
audio events are created always.
You can create audio parts in the following ways:
• To gather existing audio events into a part, select Audio > Events to Part.
This creates an audio part containing all selected audio events on the same track.
To remove the part and make the events appear as independent objects on
the track again, select the part and select Audio > Dissolve Part.
• Draw a part on an audio track with the Draw tool.
You can also draw parts by pressing [Alt]/[Option] and using the Object
Selection tool.
