Selecting a Region for Edit
Prior to performing an edit, an audio region must be selected. There are a number of ways 
to select a region: Using the Selector Tool, Drag and Trim Tool, or by individual 
selection of Track Edit buttons and In and Out points. 
 
Selector Tool 
The Selector Tool, located in the Transport window (
), can be used to select, or
highlight, regions for editing. To select a region, click and drag over the desired area. In 
and Out points are automatically set and Track Edit buttons are automatically enabled 
when selecting the region. 
 
 
To add an edit track to already highlighted group of tracks, hold down Shift while 
clicking on the desired tracks. To deselect a track either hold down the Shift key and 
click once on the selected track or Ctrl + Click on the selected track. You may also add or 
remove tracks for editing by selecting or deselecting the desired Track Edit buttons (
).
 
An already highlighted region can be extended by performing a Shift + Click + Drag over 
the desired area. To remove an area from a highlighted region, perform a Ctrl + Click + 
Drag. A drag selection can be aborted (if the mouse is still held down) using the Esc 
(escape) button. A summary of Selector Tool shortcuts is available in Appendix A.
