gion’s Replaces all regions that fit the Match cri-
teria and the On criteria with the replacement
region from the Region List.
• Start Position: replaces all regions that have
the same original start time as the selected

have been auto-created when trimming
end points.
• End Position: replaces all regions that have
the same original end time as the selected
region. This includes regions that may
have been auto-created when trimming
start points.
• Name: replaces all regions that come from
the same audio file and have been renamed
to the same name
• On This Track: replaces regions that fit the
Match criteria and are on the same track as
the original region.
• On All Tracks: replaces regions that fit the
Match criteria for all tracks in the session.
• On Within the Selection: replaces regions

Region matching uses all specified Match crite-
ria. For example, if you select Start Position and
End Position, all regions from the same original
audio file as your selection with the same origi-
nal start and end times will be replaced.
Fit Region Using The: Original Region Length If
the replacement region is smaller than the orig-
inal region, the region is placed in the playlist
and any remaining audio from the original re-
gion is removed.
If the replacement region is larger than the se-
lection, it is placed in the playlist and trimmed
to fit within the length of the original region.
Fit Region Using The: Original Selection
Length When the playlist selection extends be-
yond the original region, the replacement re-
gion (if larger than the original region) is
trimmed to fit within the selection.
Fit Region Using The: Replacement Region
Length The replacement region is placed in its
entirety, regardless of the length of the original
region or selection.
To replace regions:

want to replace. The selection can extend be-
yond the region’s end point, to include material
from the replacement region that is longer than
the original region.

Shift-drag (Mac) the replacement region from
the Region List to the selected region. The Re-
place Region dialog opens.

mand-Shift-drag (Mac) any region from the
Region List to any unselected region on a
track to open the Replace Region dialog
without first making a selection.
