Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Selection Ranges

You can cut or copy and paste selection ranges, using the functions on the Edit menu. You can also use the Cut Time and Paste Time options.

Cut

Cuts out the data in the selection range and moves it to the clipboard. The selection range is replaced by empty track space in the Project window, meaning that events to the right of the range keep their positions.

Copy

Copies the data in the selection range to the clipboard.

Paste

Pastes the clipboard data to the start position and track of the current selection. Existing events on the tracks remain at their original position.

Paste at Origin

Pastes the clipboard data back at its original position. Existing events on the tracks remain at their original position.

This option is available in Edit > Functions.

Cut Time

This option is available in Edit > Range.

Paste Time

Pastes the selection range from the clipboard to the start position and track of the current selection. Existing events are moved to make room for the pasted data.
