I and O, are your friends where I is the start position of the highlight and 
O is the end. You can check to see if you've a section region highlighted 
by hitting the r command which will then prompt you to name the region, or 
if using a script in JFW, use it's command to tell you what is highlighted.

Hi guys,
Can somebody please email me off list and give me a step by step 
instruction on how to edit a basic wave file in sound forge? I'm not sure 
how to select, mark, listen back to the selection, and so forth.  I'm used 
to using fast edit where you place your markers down where you want them 
with an M, hit s for select, zoom in and out and cut wherever I need. 
Thanks for any help.
Denny

Subject: Sound Forge help with mixing voice overs


Hello, well it's using the technique of voice overs in Sound Forge, but my
purpose is a little different. I've used the paste special menu, but it just
doesn't turn out like I hoped. I have a concert recording where the singing
and guitar is more to one side of the audio track than another. It's
difficult to listen to like that, and I don't want to discard the stereo
image because of the audience ambience. What I figured on doing was having
one file be where the audio is on the left side mostly, and taking the exact
same thing and swapping channels for the other file. So we have two files,
one where the audio leans towards the left with audience ambience happening
on the right, and the other file which is the exact opposite, with the audio
leaning towards the right and audience ambience to the left. I figured I'd
select all the data in one of the files, which one doesn't really matter,
then flip over to the other file and use the paste special menu. I select
mix, and then select the normal voiceover mode. The result leans one way or
the other, and doesn't balance out. This sounds like it should work in
theory. Is there something I've done wrong? If I did a straight channel
copy, then that means losing the ambience on the channel where the guitar
and voice are less prominent. Would I have to cancel out the less prominent
channels first, then add them back in later? Any help would be appreciated,
as I'd like a nice balanced recording.
Matthew

I don't know if Sound Forge can do this, but gold Wave has a channel Match 
feature for exactly this type of purpose. What it effectively does is 
maximize the two stereo channels so that the peaks in both are at the 
maximum volume without clipping. this effectively evens out the stereo 
channels in a situation such as yours.
