Apple Logic Pro 9 - Manual (Page 398)

All selected regions are cut at the left locator, and a passage of one cycle length is inserted.
Regions currently in the Clipboard are then pasted at the playhead position.
Tip: The Splice command is perfect when you want to insert a part (a chorus, for example)
at another point in your arrangement. To ensure all tracks are shifted, including tempo,
time signature changes, and markers, make sure you select everything beforehand (using
Command-A or Shift-I).
To repeat a section of your arrangement using the locators
1 Set the locators to span the section you want to repeat (bars 5 to 8, for example).
2 Select the regions that you want to repeat. If no selection is made (or if you use the Repeat
Section button in the Arrange toolbar), all regions that fall between the locators are
affected.
3 Choose Region > Cut/Insert Time > Snip: Repeat Section Between Locators (or use the
corresponding key command).
The portions of all regions that are wholly, or partially, encompassed by the locators are
copied and pasted to the right locator position.
Creating Region Aliases
An alias in Logic Pro is like an alias in the Finder. It looks like a region, but contains no
actual data. It is just a reference to the data of the original region—a virtual reflection of
the original.
