CTRL-shift-click when dragging combines the two above operations. A time-
constrained copy of the selected region is place on another track without
disturbing the original regions.
NOTE: Copying in this manner does not place the copied segment on the Clip-
board. Like the Delete key, the Clipboard retains its original contents.
Insert Time inserts a specific amount of blank space into the selected Track(s). It
is a combination of Split and Paste with Splice enabled, except that blank space is
pasted instead of the contents of the copy buffer. The default position for the
insertion is the location of the Current Time bar. If the Current Time bar intersects
a Region on a selected Track, then the Region is Split and blank space is inserted
at that point.
When an I-beam area selection is made, the amount of time inserted defaults to
the length of the selected area, starting at the beginning of the selection area.
When the insert point is selected with the Hand tool, the length of the insert time
defaults to 0 and must be manually entered in the Insert Time dialog box.
To Insert blank Time into one or more Tracks:
Select the insert point and track(s) you want to Insert Time into, then select
Insert Time from the Edit menu, or use keyboard shortcut CTRL+I. In the
Insert Time dialog box, modify the Amount of time to be inserted and the
Insert Position as necessary, and click OK.
A 10 millisecond fade is automatically generated at the beginning (fade-in) and
end (fade-out) of every region. These fades occur at the start and stop of any
recording, and also at the ends of any Cut or Split within a region. The duration of
the fade and its shape can be adjusted from the Region Editor dialog box (see page
17) or by dragging the inside edge of the fade area with the hand tool.
Right clicking in the fade area will pop up a menu to change the shape of the Fade-
in or Fade-out curve.
