Hi,

Thanks so much all for the help. I didn't quite get to the bottom of why it 
wasn't working before now but it's working great now regardless it seems of 
selecting or otherwise the keyboard focus buttons. maybe because I've shut and 
reopend the session since I last tried. So, back to joy again. I'm already more 
productive after 24 hours than I was in Logic after about 9 months and being 
able to find and set my EQ paramaters, at long last!!

So, at risk of becoming boring with my enthusiasm, Where can I get a list of 
shortcut keys for PT 8? I particularly want to be ableto select and copy audio 
around.

One question, is it possible accessibly to copy, let's say a verse of a song 
across all the tracks and paste it in the next verse along and have all the 
music placed in the correct tracks? I never figgured out how to do that in 
Sonar and doing that track by track gets very old, very quickly.

P.S

Kevin, I also have Superior drummer, so if there's anything I can help with on 
a preset front, just mail me, though of course, I'm still new to PT.

Gazza,
