REDO
This steps forward through the Undo history.
CUT
The CUT function removes the audio from the selected track(s) between the In and the Out points and
places it into the clipboard.  All subsequent audio will be slipped earlier in time to replace the audio that
was cut. 
						

							110
COPY
The COPY function copies the audio from the selected track(s) between the In and Out points and places it
into the clipboard.
PASTE
PASTE places the contents of the clipboard into the selected track(s) at the position of the In point and
overwrites any existing material on those selected tracks starting at the In point and extending for the
duration of the clipboard contents.  PASTE does not alter the placement of any other material on the
track(s). 
						

							111
CLEAR
The CLEAR function removes the audio between the In and Out points, replacing it with silence.  It does
not affect the position of any other audio material on the track(s).  The clipboard is not affected.
INSERT
INSERT places the contents of the clipboard into the selected track(s) at the In point, while slipping all
subsequent audio on the selected tracks later in time an amount equal to the inserted audio. 
						

							112
OPEN
OPEN places a segment of silence into the selected track(s) at the In point equal to the time between the In
and Out points, while slipping all subsequent audio later in time an amount equal to the time between the In
and Out points.
LEFT CUT
Left Cut removes the audio from the selected track(s) between the In mark and the Out mark and places it
into the clipboard, while slipping all previous events on the track later in time by an amount equal to the
length of the cut track segment. The keyboard shortcut for this command is Ctrl+G. 
						

							113
EVENT LOCAL CUT
The EVENT LOCAL CUT function removes the audio from the selected track(s) between the In and the
Out points within an audio event and places it into the clipboard.  Subsequent audio within that event will
be slipped earlier in time to replace the audio that was cut.  Subsequent events will not move.
EVENT LOCAL LEFT CUT
Event Local Left Cut removes the audio from the selected clip between the In and Out marks and places it
on the clipboard. The remainder of the clip to the left of the In mark will be pulled up to the right (later in
time) to the position of the Out mark, but no other clips on the track will be moved. There is no Keyboard
shortcut for this command. 
						

							114
DISCARD
The DISCARD function removes the audio on both sides of the In and Out points, replacing it with silence
but will NOT remove audio beyond the next or previous edit boundaries.  The clipboard is not affected.
PASTE LEFT
Paste Left will paste the contents of the clipboard on the selected track so that the right side of the clip (the
point later in time) is placed at the In mark. The In and Out marks will then automatically surround the
pasted clip. The keyboard shortcut for this command is Ctrl+K.. 
						

							115
PASTE AT OUT
Paste at Out will paste the contents of the clipboard on the selected track so that the beginning of the clip is
placed at the Out mark. The keyboard shortcut for this command is Ctrl-shift-O.
PASTE AT PLAYHEAD
Paste at Playhead will paste the contents of the clipboard on the selected track so that the beginning of the
clip is placed at the Playhead (Current Time Register). The keyboard shortcut for this command is Ctrl-
shift-P. 
						

							116
SYNC PASTE
(SHIFT then PASTE)
Sync paste is similar to PASTE, but it allows the user to reference a location defined by the position of the
play head other than the IN point.  Essentially, the difference between the play head and the IN point when
the audio is copied is maintained when a SYNC PASTE is performed.  New IN and OUT points are
generated at the Sync Past location.  This allows the user to reference a downbeat in music or visual event
in a video playback.
SYNC INSERT
(SHIFT then INSERT)
Sync insert is similar to SYNC PASTE except instead of pasting over existing audio, the audio is moved
later in time an amount equal to the pasted audio.  Essentially, the difference between the play head and the
IN point when the audio is copied is maintained when a SYNC INSERT is performed. New IN and OUT
points are generated at the Sync Insert location.  This allows the user to reference a downbeat in music or a
visual event in a video playback. 
						

							117
SPLIT
(SHIFT then COPY)
The SPLIT function creates an event boundary at the play head location.
IN→
→→ →NOW
(SHIFT then OPEN)
This function will move the audio defined by the In and Out points to the current position of the play head
overwriting any existing audio event(s).  The audio’s In point is placed at the play head. 
						

							118
DUPLICATE
The Duplicate command will create a new copy (duplicate) of the selected material and will automatically
append it to the end of the selected edit region. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+D.
RENAME EVENT
This function allows the name of selected audio event to be changed.
RENDER
The Render function creates a single continuous audio file from multiple audio events on edit-
enabled track(s) between the In and Out points.
