I can see you've got plenty to think about but ... when making range selections as Stephen and Hartmut described, be aware of the snap-to-grid setting. set to grid-off for very fine selection tuning, switching between zoom tool and select tool to tweak the ends of the selection. ( the selection is not lost when you switch to zoom and back. not in 2.5 anyway.) if you are using a click or drum-machine track: enable the tempo and meter rulers (above the tracks area ) and right-click on the markers to edit them. you can now use the snap-to-grid to make rhythmically accurate edits down to small fractions of a beat. hope this helps. Ardour is a featureful program with an initial learning curve, but its well worth the effort. stay cool, G. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
