<h2>Implicit Range</h2>
<p>
In addition to explicit range selections made with the Range tool, Ardour
also provides an <dfn>implicit edit range</dfn>. This edit range can be
very useful if you want to edit by ear, rather than by mouse. If neither a
regions nor an explicit range is selected, then any editing operation that
requires a range (such as "separate") will use the implicit edit range.
</p>
<p>
The implicit range is the area between the current edit point and some other position.
In most cases it is either
</p>
<ul>
<li>the area between the mouse and the playhead, or</li>
<li>the area between a selected marker and the mouse or playhead.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Which of these is true depends on which edit point setting you are using (Mouse,
Playhead or Marker) and whether there is a selected marker at that time.

Ripple Edit mode provides the following conveniences:

<li> Moving a region will move later regions to compensate for the length of the move</li>
