Working With Regions
Regions are the building blocks of your WaveBurner projects.
Regions can include the entire source audio file or any
continuous section of an audio file.
The edits you make to a region do not change the source audio file, so you can always
revert to the original, if necessary.
When you add an audio file to a project, a region is created. The new region appears in
the Wave View area and in the Region list. Regions are displayed chronologically in the
Wave View area—from left to right. Regions are alternately displayed in the upper or
lower half of the Wave View area, making it easier to view any overlapping areas
between two regions. Regions are displayed in chronological order—from top to
bottom—in the Region list.
Once a region is added to your project, it is automatically assigned a track start marker,
which contains the track number displayed by the CD player during playback. This track
start marker is mirrored by a newly created track that uses the new region, and appears
in the Track list.
You can edit regions in a variety of ways. You can copy, reorder, trim, and split regions,
adjust volume levels, normalize, add fade-ins, fade-outs, and crossfades.
Selecting Regions
You must first select a region before editing it.
To select a region:
m Click the region name in the Region list or the waveform in the Wave View area.
Note: You can select more than one region by either Command or Shift-clicking
(consecutive regions) on the desired regions. You can also use rubber-band selection
for consecutive regions.
Selected regions appear darker in the Wave View area.
