Deleting measures or time from one or more tracks
There are two methods for deleting time or measures:
• If there is any audio or MIDI data in the area you want to delete, you can use the
Edit > Delete
command to delete the area that you select. Portions of MIDI clips may have no data in them:
they have boundaries but no dark lines inside—if that’s the case, use the following method.
• If there is no data in the area you want to delete, you can simply drag any clips that come after the
empty area to their proper destinations. You can also use this method if there is data in the area
you want to delete—you just have to choose whether you want to replace the data in the deleted
area, blend it with the data you’re moving, or slide it over to make room.
To delete time when there
is
audio or MIDI data in the area you want to delete:
1.
In the Track view, select the track(s) you want to delete measures or time from by doing one of
the following:
• Select a single track by clicking the track number.
• Select multiple tracks by CTRL-clicking the track numbers.
2.
Set the Snap to Grid value to the unit of time you want to delete. For example, if you want to
delete whole measures, set the Snap to Grid value to a whole measure.
3.
In the Clips pane, select the measures or time you want to delete by dragging in the Time Ruler
located just above the first track.
4.
Select
Edit > Delete Special
.
The
Delete
dialog box appears.
5.
Click the following check boxes:
•
Events in Tracks
•
Delete Hole.
If you want the data that comes after the hole to retain its same placement in a
measure, check the
Shift by Whole Measures
option.
6.
Click any of the other options you want to delete.
7.
Click
OK
