Selecting and Renaming Regions

You must first select a region before editing it. Selected regions are highlighted in the
Wave View area, Overview, and Regions list.

To select a region

µ

Click the region name in the Regions list or the waveform in the Wave View area.

Note: You can select more than one region by either Command- or Shift-clicking the
regions. You can also drag across several consecutive regions in the Wave View area.

To rename a region

µ

When a region is created, it is assigned the name of the source audio file by default.
Double-click the region name in the Regions list, and type in a new name.

Cutting, Copying, and Deleting Regions

You can split a region into two regions. This is useful if you want to remove a portion of
a region, or move or copy part of the region to another location in the project.

To split a region
Do one of the following:

µ

Choose the Scissors tool and click at the desired region split position in the Wave View
area. You can press Command to temporarily switch between the Pencil and Scissors
tools.

Note: Automation mode must be disabled to access the Scissors tool.

µ

Click at the desired region split position in the Wave View area, and click the Cut Region
toolbar button.

The region is split in two, and the portion of the region that follows the split point appears
in the opposite track lane (upper or lower) in the Wave View area. By default, a track
marker is created at the beginning of the new region. Press Option when cutting a region
to prevent the insertion of the track marker.

To copy a region

µ

Option-drag the region’s icon up or down in the first column of the Regions list.

As you Option-drag, a horizontal line will indicate the target location for the region copy.

To delete a region

µ

Select the region in the Wave View area or Regions list, then choose Edit > Delete or press
the Delete key.
