Editing
Pro Tools LE provides several tools for editing
audio and MIDI. In the Edit window, audio and
MIDI tracks can be edited into regions or re-
peated in different locations to create loops, re-
arrange sections or entire songs, or to assemble
tracks using material from multiple takes.
Audio and MIDI editing are typically used to:
• Fix or replace mistakes
• Re-arrange songs and projects
• Clean up track timing and rhythm by
aligning hits to Grid values like bars and
beats, or grooves
• Create final tracks using selections from
multiple takes (also known as comp tracks ).
Edit Modes
Pro Tools LE has the following Edit modes: Shuf-
fle, Spot, Slip, and two Grid modes, Absolute
(standard Pro Tools Grid mode), and Relative.
The Edit mode is selected by clicking the corre-
sponding button in the upper left of the Edit
window.
