Using drag-and-drop operations
You can take advantage of using drag-and-drop operations to perform many common tasks. Drag-and-drop operations make
controlling the Sound Forge software faster and more intuitive and allow for increased editing power. The major drag-and-drop editing
operations are paste, mix, and create CD tracks.
Dragging mono selections into multichannel destinations
When pasting or mixing a mono selection into a multichannel file, you can mix the selection to both channels by dropping it on the
destination data window’s center line. Otherwise, the selection is mixed into the left or right channel exclusively.
Snapping to points in drag-and-drop operations
A major advantage of drag-and-drop editing is the ability to snap to markers, regions, time increments, or other points in the
destination window. All drag-and-drop operations can be configured to snap (or align) to points established within the destination file.
The following table describes all points that drag-and-drop selections snap to in the destination file.
