If you want to constrain the selection to the
current Grid value, set the Edit mode to Grid.
3
Make an Edit selection.
4
Choose Edit > Repeat. In the Repeat dialog,
enter the number of times you want the mate-
rial to repeat, then click OK.
The material is placed immediately after the se-
lection’s end point, and duplicated the specified
number of times.
In Shuffle mode, the repeated data is placed di-
rectly after the end of the selection. Regions oc-
curring after it slide to accommodate the re-
peated material. In Slip mode, the repeated
material overlaps any subsequent data.
Editing Stereo and
Multichannel Tracks
Regions on individual channels within stereo
and multichannel tracks cannot be indepen-
dently selected. All selections for these tracks are
time-based, which means that selections made
with the Selector or Time Grabber tool extend to
each and every channel in the track.
When regions in multichannel tracks are edited
with any of the Trim tools or dragged with the
Time Grabber tool, material on all channels is
affected equally as a group.
Split Selected Tracks
To edit a specific channel within a stereo or
multichannel track without affecting the other
channels, you can split the track into separate
mono tracks. Once the edits have been made to
the separated material, you can then drag or
copy it back to the original multichannel track.
To split a stereo or multichannel track:
1
Select one or more stereo or multichannel
tracks (see “Selecting Tracks” on page 127).
2
Choose Track > Split Into Mono. Regions from
the channels on the selected tracks are placed
on new, mono audio tracks.
Names for the new tracks are based on the
source track name and channel suffix. For exam-
ple, if a stereo track called “Funkit” is split, two
new tracks called “Funkit.L” and “Funkit.R” are
created.
Output and send assignments and volume and
pan settings are retained in the new tracks.
Mono equivalents of stereo and multi-mono
plug-in assignments are assigned in the new
tracks. However, multichannel plug-in assign-
ments are not assigned in the new tracks.
