|
||
Range Mode. In this chapter we will get an overview of all the <strong>Edit Modes</strong>
|
||
and <strong>cursor modes</strong> available on that part of the Editor Window.</p><p><img src=en/Ardour6_Edit_Modes_Cursor_Modes.png alt="Ardour Edit Modes"></p><h2 id=edit-modes>Edit Modes</h2><p>These controls define the behavior of the main canvas and the different
|
||
functions of the cursor.</p><p>The drop-down <em>Edit Mode</em> menu contains three options:</p><dl><dt><strong>Slide mode</strong></dt><dd>This is the standard mode. It allows you to freely drag regions around
|
||
horizontally (within the same track) and vertically (between tracks).</dd><dt><strong>Ripple mode</strong></dt><dd>Automatically moves regions when you cut or shift one of the regions. E.g. if
|
||
you cut a portion of an audio interview that isn’t interesting, Ardour will
|
||
shift all regions in all tracks to the left so that there would be no silence
|
||
where content used to be.</dd><dt><strong>Lock mode</strong></dt><dd>However you edit a region with this mode on, the content of the region will
|
||
always be where it is. You can only move the region up or down between tracks,
|
||
but not left or right.</dd></dl><p>We will only use the <em>Slide</em> edit mode in this tutorial.</p><h2 id=cursor-modes>Cursor Modes</h2><h3 id=grab-mode>Grab Mode</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-grab-edit-mode.png alt=G></p><p>This cursor mode (<strong>G</strong> shortcut) allows you to select or move objects such as
|
||
regions and breakpoints (in an automation curve). When this cursor mode is
|
||
selected, your cursor pointer will look like a little hand icon.</p><h3 id=range-mode>Range Mode</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-range-edit-mode.png alt=R></p><p>This cursor mode (<strong>R</strong> shortcut) allows you to click and drag to define or
|
||
resize time ranges. When this cursor mode is selected, your cursor pointer will
|
||
look like a vertical line. Time ranges can be selected over one or several
|
||
tracks, depending on the selection of your tracks.</p><h3 id=cut-mode>Cut Mode</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-cut-edit-mode.png alt=C></p><p>Use this cursor mode (<strong>C</strong> shortcut) to split regions into smaller regions. The
|
||
cursor turns into the shape of scissors. This allows you to point and click on a
|
||
region to split it at the cursor.</p><div class="notices tip"><p>You can cut regions directly from the <em>Grab</em> mode too (sometimes this method can
|
||
be more practical.) Without leaving the <em>Grab</em> mode, simply place the mouse at
|
||
the desired location on the region to be cut, and hit the <strong>S</strong> shortcut (for
|
||
“split”). Important: your edit point (to the left of the <em>Modes</em> toolbar) must
|
||
be set to <em>Mouse</em>.</p></div><h3 id=audition-mode>Audition Mode</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-audition-edit-mode.png alt=Audition></p><p>This cursor mode allows you to click on any existing region on any track and
|
||
have it immediately played back. Playback stops at the end of the region. When
|
||
this cursor mode is selected, your cursor pointer will look like a small
|
||
loudspeaker icon.</p><div class="notices tip"><p>You can also quickly audition a selected region without leaving the <em>Grab</em> mode.
|
||
Simply select a region and hit the shortcut key <strong>H</strong>.</p></div><h3 id=stretchshrink-region>Stretch/Shrink Region</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-stretch-shrink-edit-mode.png alt=T></p><p>This cursor mode (<strong>T</strong> shortcut) allows you to drag and resize the duration of
|
||
an entire region without changing the pitch. This is sometimes called “time
|
||
stretching’, hence the <strong>T</strong> shortcut. Please see the chapter on
|
||
<em>Stretching/Shrinking Regions</em> for more details. When this cursor mode is
|
||
selected, your cursor pointer will look like a diagonal arrow.</p><h3 id=draw-mode>Draw Mode</h3><p><img src=en/ardour7-draw-edit-mode.png alt=D></p><p>This mode (<strong>D</strong> shortcut) has 4 use cases:</p><ol><li>Drawing new automation points (automation will be discussed in detail in the
|
||
chapter <a href=../../mixing-sessions/using-automation/>Using Automation</a>).</li><li>Drawing new MIDI regions.</li><li>Drawing new MIDI notes in MIDI regions.</li><li>Editing existing MIDI notes and automation points when a region is
|
||
sufficiently zoomed in.</li></ol><p>If you haven’t zoomed in enough, it’s easy to create either a new MIDI note or a
|
||
new automation point you did not need. If this becomes a problem, you should use
|
||
the next mode which only allows for editing existing points and notes, not
|
||
creating new ones.</p><p>For drawing MIDI notes, the toolbar additionally has controls for default note
|
||

|
||
when you are on top of an existing point. Click, hold, and drag in order to move
|
||
points.</p><p>For MIDI notes, the cursor looks like a hand with a quarter note above it when
|
||
you hover the middle of note, that’s for selecting a note and moving it around.
|
||
Hovering either the left or the right border of a note will change the cursor
|
||
and allow adjusting start/end position (and thus duration) of a note.</p><p>For both automation points and MIDI notes, you can press <strong>Ctrl</strong> and click on
|
||
multiple items to add them to a selection of items, then move multiple notes or
|
||
points altogether.</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-internal-edit-mode-multiple-points.png alt="Moving multiple automation points"></figure><p>For MIDI notes specifically, you can also use rubberband selection: place the
|
||
cursor anywhere outside existing notes (the cursor will lose the quarter note
|
||
symbol), then press left mouse button and start dragging. A selection frame will
|
||
appear. All notes it touches will be selected.</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-internal-edit-mode-rubberband-selection.png alt="Rubberband selection of notes"></figure><h2 id=continuing>Continuing</h2><p>In the following chapter, we will see how to take the regions we have
