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.
