Using the ...Time Commands
Whereas the standard commands like Cut, Copy and Paste only affect the current selection,
their ... Time counterparts act upon all tracks by inserting and deleting time. Any time
signature markers within the selected region will also be affected.
Cut Time
cuts a selection of time from the Arrangement, thereby moving any audio
or MIDI on either side of the cut area closer together in the timeline. This command
reduces the length of your Arrangement by whatever amount of time you have cut.
Note that the Cut Time command affects all tracks, not only the selected ones.
A Gap Between Clips
Has Been Cut by First
Selecting It, Then
Executing the Cut Time
Command.
Paste Time
places copied time into the Arrangement, thereby increasing its overall
duration by the length of time you have copied.
Duplicate Time
places a copy of the selected timespan into the Arrangement, thereby
increasing its overall duration by the length of the selection.
Delete Time
deletes a selection of time from the Arrangement, thereby moving any
audio or MIDI on either side of the deleted area closer together in the timeline. This
command reduces the length of your Arrangement by the amount of time you have
deleted. Note that the Delete Time command affects all tracks, not only the selected
ones.
