The Audio Window
186
Audio Files and Regions: Selecting used Regions: When
you choose Edit > Select Used all audio files and regions
used in the arrangement of the song are selected.
Selecting unused Regions: Choosing Edit > Select Unused
selects all those audio files and regions which are not used
in the arrangement of the current song.
For example, you can call up this function at the end of a
production to delete any items that are not required (back-
space).
Edit Commands
All the standard edit commands are available in the Audio
window. As usual, they apply to the currently selected en-
tries (whether audio files or regions).
The Cut, Copy and Paste commands only apply to exchang-
ing items between two different songs. An audio file can
only appear once in a song’s audio list, and so cannot be
copied within a song. For instructions on how to physi-
cally copy an audio file to the hard disk, please see the sec-
tion Copying Audio Files from page 192 onwards.
Cut: The selected audio files or regions are cut out, i.e.
moved to the clipboard. They are removed from the Audio
window. Shortcut: ctrl x.
Copy: The selected audio files and their regions are copied
to the clipboard. They remain in the Audio window. Short-
cut: ctrl c.
Paste: The contents of the clipboard are added (providing
they contain audio files and their regions from another
song). Shortcut: ctrl v.
Clear: Any selected audio files or regions are deleted. You
can achieve the same effect by pressing backspace.
Don’t forget; the functions Cut or Clear do not delete au-
dio files from the hard disk, they just remove them from
the Audio window of the current song.
If regions from the audio files in the Arrange window are
being used as audio sequences these sequences will be de-
leted from the Arrange window as well.
If you want to delete the selected audio files from the hard
disk, select Audio File > Delete File(s).
Undo: Reverses the Previous Command (Shortcut: ctrl z).
You should call up this function if you want to reverse an
action.
Not all actions can be reversed using Undo. If you select a
function which you cannot Undo, you will be warned of
this before you can execute the function.
