3.6.4 Eraser Tool
The Eraser tool is used to delete an event. Click on the Eraser Tool button or press
[number 4] on the keyboard to select the Eraser tool. To delete any event using the
Eraser tool, simply click on the event. The Eraser tool is unaffected by the current
selection and will only affect the event that is directly clicked on.
However, if you click on a selected element with the Eraser
tool, all currently selected elements will be erased.
3.6.5 Common Editing Actions
Like most software applications, Capture 2.0 supports basic cut,
copy, and paste actions. Once you’ve selected an event, or a range
of events, you can perform these actions as follows:
• Cut: Press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+X on the keyboard to cut
the current selection or select Edit>Cut.
• Copy: Press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+C on the keyboard to copy
the current selection or select Edit>Copy.
• Paste: Once a selection is cut or copied, press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+V on the keyboard
to paste the selection or select Edit>Paste. The selection will be pasted to the
current playback-cursor position, or to the beginning of the track from which
the selection originated if the playback cursor is not currently set anywhere.
3.6.6 Looping
To loop the playback of any range of your Capture
2.0 Session, do one of the following:
• Loop Selection. Select an event with the Arrow tool or select a range with
the Range tool. Go to Session>Loop Selection or press P on your keyboard.
This will create a loop the exact length of the selected audio event. The range
will be indicated by a bar drawn in the timeline, with flags at both ends.
• Custom Loop Range. To create a custom loop range, mouse over
the gray line above the timeline ruler. Notice that your cursor
changes to a Pencil tool, and you can draw your loop range.
