When regions are pasted, the accompanying samples may also be pasted, but only if they are not already present in the target file.

Paste region(s) here

This is similar to the regular Paste command, but the Editor will attempt to place the regions at the location nearest the mouse position (rather than the location from which the regions were originally copied).

Delete region(s)

Deletes the currently selected regions. This command does not delete any samples mapped to the selected regions.

Apply macro

Use this function to perform complex and repetitive editing. This command will apply a Macro to every split in the currently selected region or regions.

This function works only if at least one macro has been previously defined. See the Macros chapter for more information about creating Macros of your own.

Transpose

Changes the tuning of the selected region(s) by half steps and cents.

This accomplishes the same thing as changing the unity note and the fine tune setting on every split in every selected region. The settings in the Transpose dialog reset to zero each time they are applied, so that you are always transposing and fine tuning from where you left off. The range is +/- 127 half steps and +/- 50 cents.
