Hiya Slau, Sorry, I have not cut magnetic tape, and I don't think I was very specific, trying to type on an iPhone etc.
What I meant was, what's the advantage to splitting regions to move bits around etc, when I can do say numpad =, 1, 4, to select bars 1 to 4? I've never used the split region at playhead key command, as I seem to be able to just use numpad = and then copy, cut, clear, etc. If there's something which I should know about which will enhance my Pro Tools experience, I'd love to read about it. Or are we just discussing different methods of achieving the same goal? I have never used the clip list either. Is that something I should play with more too?
