<Hints>
Make sure that you set the Clipboard In/Out points within zero files, and that you paste the area
starting from the same Clipboard In point.
* In any case, bear in mind that you cannot reduce the excessive number of events if the target
range contains a zero file.
This is because when you perform a copy & paste, move & paste, or Auto Punch In/Out, the event
is split at the edit point. Also, if a continuous long recording is made, the recorded data might
scatter to different locations on the hard disk, thus dividing the data unto multiple events.
Countermeasures against accumulating too many events due to a long recording plus many editing
operations:
One solution is to save and re-load the data to and from a DAT, adat, or SCSI device. (If the song is
too long, you may not be able to save the data to a DAT or adat.)
In this way, multiple consecutive audio files are optimized into one continuous audio file in some
cases. Set the Clipboard In point and the Clipboard Out points within an unrecorded range to copy
the area (the area that contains multiple audio files and you wish to optimize) between them, then
paste the data starting from the same Clipboard In point. Multiple audio files within this range will
become a single audio file.
