Editing
Repeat Paste
Repeat Paste (Control-Alt-V) pastes the audio in the clipboard multiple times. You might
use this feature to create a loop that plays through a song or to fill a section of film dialog
with room tone for ADR. When you select the repeat paste command, the system will
prompt you to ask how many times it should repeat the audio.
Crop
Crop (Control-U) cuts the head and tail of a clip outside of the selected range. Select a range
inside of a clip using the I-Beam tool, then use the Crop command to shorten it's length to
include only the selected range.
Insert Time
This command (Control-T) inserts silence into the selected time range and shifts all audio
after that selection later. It's the same as splitting the clip at the In point and moving all
audio after that point back the same amount of time as the selection length.
Delete Time
This command deletes the time from the timeline represented by the selected time range and
shifts all audio after that selection forward.
Split
The Split command (Control-E) slices a clip wherever the timeline is. If you've selected a
range of a clip, it separates that selection into a new clip. This separation would allow one
part of a clip to be treated or editing differently from the other part of the clip.
Play From Selection
This function (shortcut "P" on the keyboard) begins playback from the beginning of the
selection range. It ignores the pre-roll setting, if any. You might use it to hear the effects of
an edit in context of the program.
History List
The History List command (Control-H) opens a window that shows you every edit you've
done in the project, up to a maximum of 999 edits. You can press the Undo and Redo
buttons at the bottom of this window, or click on a command in the list and it will undo that
edit and everything after it.
You can also Clear the history list. This removes all of the entries from the Undo history,
and make it impossible to undo any of your edits after you confirm the action.
The History is stored with the project, so when recalling a project at a later date, it’s still
possible to undo the most recent operations.
