1.
Click the Time Selection Tool button ( ) or choose Editing Tool from the Edit menu and choose Time Selection
from the submenu. The pointer displays with an adjacent cursor ( ).
2.
Drag the mouse in the track view. The selection area is highlighted on the track view.
3.
Release the mouse button. A time selection is created and all events within it are selected.
Creating event selections within time selections
You can select specific events within a general time selection. This technique is useful for selecting individual instruments
from a particular section of a song. For example, you may want to copy all percussion events from a song’s bridge and re-
use them in the coda.
1.
Click the Time Selection Tool button ( ) or choose Editing Tool from the Edit menu and choose Time Selection
from the submenu. The pointer displays with an adjacent cursor ( ).
2.
Drag the mouse in the track view. The selection area is highlighted on the track view.
3.
Release the mouse button. A selection is created and all events within it are selected.
4.
Hold Ctrl and click any event that extends beyond the time selection. The entire event appears highlighted;
however, only the section of the event contained within the time selection is actually selected.
Working with tracks
The following sections explain several basic track functions and features.
Reordering tracks
When building an ACID project, you may want to reorder the tracks to place similar instruments in proximity to one
another. For example, placing all drum loops together in the track view makes it easier for you to fine-tune the mix of the
song’s overall drum sound.
1.
Drag the track header to a new location in the track list. A heavy black horizontal line appears on the track list to
indicate where the track will be placed.
2.
Release the mouse button. The track is dropped in the new location and the entire track list/track view adjusts
accordingly.
Resizing tracks
You can change the height of a track, thereby affecting how many tracks display in the track view. This is especially useful
when building a project with a large number of tracks. In addition, you can decrease the tracks height until only the
multipurpose slider, Track FX button, Mute button, and Solo button are visible.
1.
Drag the bottom edge of a track up or down in the track list. The pointer displays as a vertical stretch icon ( ).
2.
Release the mouse button to establish the track’s new height.
Note:
If the selection area is automatically snapping to the track view’s grid lines, the ACID snapping feature is turned on.
You can turn snapping off by pressing F8.
Tip:
You can select additional events within the time selection by continuing to hold Ctrl while clicking events. In addition,
holding Shift allows you to select the events of multiple adjacent tracks within a selection.
Tip:
You can reorder multiple tracks by holding Ctrl or Shift while selecting tracks and dragging the tracks as a group.
Tip:
You can set the default height for all new tracks by right-clicking the newly resized track in the track list and choosing
Set Default Track Properties from the shortcut menu.
