• Click outside of the range of an Audio Event, and then drag over any other
event(s); a gray box will be drawn while you drag over the target selection
area. Release the click once the box is drawn over all of the events you wish to
select, and these events will now all be selected and can be edited at once.
• Click on any event, and then while holding [Ctrl]/[Cmd] on the keyboard click on
any other event(s) to select them. This allows you to select multiple events that are
not close in proximity to each other. All selected events can now be edited at once.
The Range Tool is used to select a range, or area, within
an Audio Event(s). Click on the Range Tool button or press
[NumPad 3] on the keyboard to select the Range Tool.
To select a range within events, using the Range Tool, click and drag over the area
to be selected; a gray box will be drawn over the target selection area. Release the
click once the box is drawn over the range of the events you wish to select. The
range of the events you have selected is now treated as a single consolidated event.
• A common use of the Range Tool is to quickly select and delete a range of audio
within events, rather than using the Split Tool to make two splits, then selecting and
deleting the section with the Arrow Tool. This process is shown in the pictures below.
• Once a range has been selected, the Range Tool will automatically become
the Arrow Tool when the mouse cursor is floated over the selected range. This
makes quickly selecting and editing any range of an event very simple.
• The Range Tool can be temporarily toggled when the Arrow Tool is
selected by pressing and holding [Ctrl]\[Cmd] on the keyboard.
Using the Splice Tool, single Audio Events can be split into
multiple Audio Events. Click on the Split Tool button, or press
[NumPad 4] on the keyboard to select the Split Tool.
Notice that the split will occur at the leftmost edge of the Split tool icon (the
scissors). By splitting a single event, you essentially create two events that
can be edited independently. If multiple events are selected across multiple
tracks, the Split Tool will affect all of the selected events in the same way.
The Eraser Tool is used to delete an Audio Event. Click on the Eraser Tool
button or press [NumPad 5] 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.
