To Unmute a Time Range Using Alternate Style
1. Make sure that Mute Entire Clips under Click+Drag Behavior in the Mute
tool dropdown menu has a check mark.
2. Using the Mute tool, Alt-click inside the upper half of a clip in the muted area.
You can mute or unmute a clip without using the Mute tool if you want. Pressing Q
on your keyboard toggles the mute status of all selected clips. Any muted time
ranges remain muted.
Audition (Selection Playback)
The Transport-Audition command plays back only selected clips and/or time
ranges.
To use the command, hold down the Shift key and then press the Spacebar. Only
the selected data plays back.
Isolating (Clip Soloing)
Isolating clips mutes all the overlapping areas in a track except for the areas that
you Ctrl-drag the Mute tool through (this is the Default style of isolating). With
the Alternate style of isolating, you can Ctrl-click with the Mute tool to solo whole
clips instead of regions. If you have a lot of clips to work with, you might find it
quicker to isolate a few clips or regions rather than mute large numbers of clips or
regions.
To Isolate a Region with the Default Style
1. Make sure that Mute Time Ranges under Click+Drag Behavior in the
Mute tool dropdown menu has a check mark.
2. Using the Mute tool, hold down the Ctrl key and drag through the region of a
clip or clips that you want isolated (soloed).
Any overlapping regions become muted. To de-isolate the isolated region, release
the Ctrl key, and drag through the upper half of any muted regions.
If you want to temporarily switch to the Alternate style of isolating (see procedure
below), hold down the Alt key along with the Ctrl key, and click whole clips instead
of dragging through regions.
