Editing Songs & Tracks
This chapter explains the edit functions that can be used with songs and tracks.
Copying a Song
The Song Copy function allows you to duplicate a song, including title, markers, and Tempo
Map. This is useful for making a backup copy before performing a ping-pong or punch in/out
operation. If the ping-pong or punch doesn’t turn out as expected, you can always go back to
the duplicate version and try again.

(in this example, there are two songs recorded, so the
