You may change the event value (move up or down) or its timecode (move left or right).
The timecode position is bounded by the next and previous events.
The timecode and current value of the event are shown in the Automation Edit group of
the Smart Pane.
 Select one or more events by making a box (marquee) with the mouse. Selected events
may be:
 Dragged up and down or left and right. Left and right movement is bounded by
the next and previous events. The value of the highest point is shown in the

Editing
Cut and Paste
Overview
In this menu, we cut audio to the clipboard, then paste it using the Enter key.
The cutting action is performed by the
cut head, cut tail and cut clip (or cut range) buttons.
Note: copy and paste is performed exactly the same way as cut and paste, except that you start
by pressing the
copy mode button instead of the cut mode button.
Note:
erase is similar to cut (without the paste) except that the clipboard is not used.
To use this Help item, you need to load a Project containing clips. The system comes with a demo
project. To load it, consult the following Xplain item: How to  Files  Load Demo
