Adding Events to a Track
After you've created tracks, you can use the Draw tool
or Paint
tool
to create events in the timeline.
If a track has multiple clips, events will be created using the active clip.
-
The Draw tool adds events to a single track at a time.
-
You can drag the Paint tool across multiple tracks to create events on several tracks at once.
TIP Tips:
-
When the Paint tool is selected, hold Ctrl while clicking to paint the entire media file as an event.
-
When painting MIDI or one-shot clips, you can click the down arrow
next to
the Paint tool to set the length of events that will be created when you
drag with the Paint tool.
For more information about the available editing tools, please see Editing Tools.
TIP If you want to create events quickly during playback, use the Insert Event at Play Cursor and Paste Event at Play Cursor commands.
