Region Overlap and Underlap
When a tick-based audio track has multiple re-
gions, an increase in tempo can cause neighbor-
ing regions to overlap. Audio regions can be set
to display a small "dog-ear" corner to indicate
overlapping region boundaries.

region boundaries:

Changing Region Overlap/Underlap
After tempo changes and other edits, regions
may overlap in undesired ways. To correct this,
a region can be brought to the front, or sent be-
hind neighboring regions as needed.
To change the region overlap or underlap:
In the Edit window, choose the region or re-
1
gions you want to re-order.
Do one of the following:
2
• Choose Region > Bring to Front to make
the region overlap the neighboring re-
gions.
– or –
• Choose Region > Send to Back to make the
region underlap the neighboring regions.
If multiple overlapping regions are selected,
Pro Tools will apply the command to each re-
gion as that region relates to the neighboring re-
gion on the right.
