Staff View Layout dialog
Split At Selection
Choosing this option splits the clip(s) at the boundaries of the selected area. If you’re splitting a MIDI
clip, the split will not split any notes, so the split may not happen exactly where your selection
boundary is.
Split Repeatedly/Starting at Measure/And Again Every “N” Measures
Choosing this option creates split boundaries in the selected clip(s) starting at the location you
choose in the Starting at Measure field, and again at every interval of measures that you choose in
the And Again Every “N” Measures field.
Split at Each Marker Time
Choosing this option creates split boundaries in the selected clip(s) at each marker time.
Split When Silent For At Least “N” Measures
Choosing this option separates the selected clip(s) and removes empty space whenever the clips
contain empty space that lasts a certain number of measures, the number of which you specify in the
“N” field.
Use Nondestructive Cropping When Splitting MIDI Clips
If you check this option, SONAR hides any MIDI data (such as note durations) that overlap the clip
boundary, without deleting any data. If you slip edit the new clip to expand the original boundary,
SONAR uncovers the original data. If you don’t check this option, SONAR deletes overlapping data
when you split clips.
Note that the Undo and Redo commands work with all of these editing commands.
