Chapter 20: Working with Regions and Selections 441
To Replace Regions using the Region List pop-up
menu:
1 Select a region in a track to be replaced.
2 Control-click (Windows) or Command-click
(Mac) the desired replacement region in the Re-
gion List. (The Control key is only required if
the Region List Selection Follows Edit Selection
option is enabled in the Editing Preferences
page.)

Replace Region Dialog” on page 439).

Replace Region and Multichannel
Tracks
The Replace Region command supports drag-
ging multichannel regions from the Region List
to multichannel tracks, provided they are the
same channel format. For example, you can re-
place a selected stereo region in a stereo audio
track with another stereo region from the Re-
gion List. However, you cannot replace it with
two mono audio regions. Additionally, you can-
not replace regions in multiple mono tracks
with multichannel regions.
Audio Regions from Field
Recorders
Pro Tools provides region replacement tools spe-
cifically for field recording workflows. For audio
imported from a field recorder, you can replace
regions on tracks with alternate channels and
you can expand multiple channels to new
tracks.
Replacing a Region with an
Alternate Channel
(Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools LE with
DV Toolkit 2 Only)
Pro Tools provides region replacement tools spe-
cifically for field recording workflows. You can
replace a mono region (or selected portion of a
mono region) with a matching segment of an al-
ternate channel that was recorded simulta-
neously. Any fades performed on the original re-
gion are automatically recalculated against the
replacement region, and any pre-existing auto-
mation on that track is unchanged.
To replace a region with a matching alternate
channel:
1 In the Timeline, make a selection that in-
cludes or overlaps the region or portion of the
region you want to replace.
2 Do one of the following:
• With any Edit tool, Right-click (Windows
or Mac) or Control-click (Mac) the selec-
tion you want to replace, then select
Matches from the pop-up menu.
– or –
• With the Selector tool, Control-click (Win-
dows) or Command-click (Mac) the selec-
tion you want to replace.
The Matches submenu displays matching alter-
nate channels under the Channels header. (This
submenu also displays any available alternate
takes under the Alternates header.)
For detailed information on working with
multichannel recordings made with field re-
corders, see the Field Recorder Workflow
Guide.
