editing question

[roark]

i have PTLE 6.2.3 with an mbox and i am having trouble finding how to move blocks of regains in my editiong window. does anyone know how to set it up where i can capture a number of regains while passing the cursor through only portions of the them?

thanx

If you use the selector tool, you can click and drag over an area of your song and select it. The selection can run over various regions and doesn't have to start or end where the regions start and end. I think that is what you are asking. I do this and use copy/paste and such--

I think he is asking about contiguous region selection. LE cannot do this but TDM can. LE has no object selector tool.

this is what i have been doing. but there should be an easy way to click on 4 regions and move them all at once in their entirety, rather than copy, pasting, triming then deleating the origional. every other multi-track program i have worked with has this capibility. it would seem odd to me that PTLE couldn't.

Have you tried the grabber tool?

If you click on a region, it selects that region in its entirety. You can then shift click and grab more regions (as long as they're contiguous). As said above, the object grabber on the TDM platform has the ability to grab non-contiguous regions.

yes, i just realized that i could do that.
