Shortcut Audio Editor Owner’s Manual

Cut a Selected Segment

The Cut operation removes a portion of audio defined by the position of the edit marks.

There are two reasons a Cut operation might be performed:

A portion of audio is to be removed, for placement somewhere else.

A portion of audio is unwanted, and is removed and never used again.

To Cut a highlighted segment, press the

CUT

key; the highlighted area will disappear, and

the surrounding audio will join together, forming a seamless transition.

The removed piece is placed in a temporary or “clipboard” memory (actually a file called

), and may now be inserted at another location if desired. Remember that only one

Cut command at a time can be stored in the clipboard memory. Before making a second Cut,
insert the first piece at the desired location. When multiple clipboard memories are needed, use
the Hot Keys.
