108 Chapter 5 Working in the Timeline

Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Audio Clips

You can cut, copy, and paste audio clips in the Timeline. You can also paste multiple

copies of a clip.

To cut an audio clip:

m Select the clip in the Timeline, then choose Edit > Cut (or press Command-X).

The clip is removed from the Timeline and placed on the Clipboard.

To copy an audio clip, do one of the following:

m Select the clip in the Timeline, then choose Edit > Copy (or press Command-C).

m Option-drag the clip to the position where you want to copy it.

To paste an audio clip:

m Set the playhead at the position where you want to paste the clip, then choose Edit >

Paste (or press Command-V).

The clip is pasted in the currently selected track, starting at the current playhead

position. If no track is selected, the clip is pasted in the track from which it was cut or

copied.

When pasting clips cut or copied from different positions in the Timeline or from

multiple tracks, the following conditions apply:

Â Pasting clips from different Timeline positions: The clip closest to the beginning of the

project is pasted at the current playhead position, and the remaining clips are pasted

at the same positions in time relative to the first clip as when they were cut or

copied.

Â Pasting clips from multiple tracks: The clip from the topmost track is pasted in the

currently selected track, and the remaining clips are pasted at the same positions

relative to the first clip as when they were cut or copied. If there are not enough

tracks to accommodate the clips being pasted, a dialog appears asking if you want to

create new tracks for the clips. If you choose not to create new tracks, only the clips

for which tracks already exist are pasted.

When pasting audio clips, you can choose to paste multiple copies of the clip in

succession. Using the Paste Repeat command, you can paste any number of copies of a

clip in the selected track.
