Chapter 3 Arrange Window 167

Arrange Window Techniques

If necessary, you should reread the “Using the Mouse” section on page 13, the

“Selection Techniques” section on page 36, and the “Edit Operations” section on

page 34.

These sections, and the techniques covered in the MIDI Regions section (see “MIDI

Regions” on page 128), will teach you how to perform most Arrange window

operations.

This section describes functions that

• only affect a particular part of the song, determined by the Locator positions, or

• cause an interraction between objects and Locator positions.

Adding or Removing Passages

The Region > Cut/Insert Time functions allow you to remove a passage from a complete

arrangement. All bar changes, tempo changes and global score symbols are shifted

accordingly. You can also insert a gap within your arrangement. As with cutting time,

all tempo changes and so on are moved accordingly. You can also cut and paste a

section of your song from one location to another.

You can change just a few selected objects as well. In this situation, you need to tell

Logic whether any bar changes, tempo changes and global score symbols should also

be shifted. A dialog box will ask whether or not you also want to move Tempo Changes

and Global Score Symbols.

Press Enter if you don’t want to move tempo changes and global score symbols.

The abovementioned global edit is then performed on all objects, if selected. These

functions are otherwise restricted to tracks that contain selected objects (at least those

that fall between the locator points).

Inserting a Gap across All Tracks

Region > Cut/Insert Time > Insert Time and Move by Locators—The selected objects are

cut at the left locator. All objects to the right of the left locator are moved to the right

by the cycle length. This creates a gap between the locators. Objects which began at

the left locator now begin at the right locator.

Removing a Section

Region > Cut/Insert Time > Snip: Cut Time and Move by Locators—The selected objects

are cut at the left and right locators. The objects created between the locators are

deleted (in fact, they’re copied to the Clipboard and erased from the song, as with Cut)

and all objects to the right of the right locator are moved to the left by the length of

the cycle zone. All objects which began at the right locator now begin at the left

locator, and the section between the locators is removed from the arrangement.
