Using regions
Regions identify ranges
of
time
and provide a way
to
subdivide
an
audio
file. A region
is
defined
as
the
area between
two
region tags. Regions
can
be
used
to
indicate sections
of
projects such
as
choruses or verses, or they can
be used
to
make notes in
the
project.
The Regions List
window
contains all
of
the
regions and markers
that
exist
in
the
active data window. For
more
information,
see
Using the Regions
Liston
page

You
can use
multiple
methods
of
inserting regions including a menu
command, drag-and-drop, a time ruler shortcut, and a keyboard shortcut.
The
following
sections briefly describe
the
methods
of
creating regions.
To
work
through
these procedures, use
the
Fill.pca file. This file
