Editing Concepts and Overview
Phrases and Regions
In editing a track, you can work:
pre-defined chunks of audio called “phrases.” You can work with one phrase at a time
on each track, or you can work with phrases on multiple tracks at the same time.
Chapter 19 discusses the things you can do with phrases.
a specified time “region” in one or more tracks. Region editing operations are
described in detail in Chapter 20.
Remember that when you’re editing a track, what you’re really editing is its currently
selected V-Track.
To master the powerful editing features of the VS-2480, it’s important to understand
exactly what a phrase is. See “What’s Pointer-Based Playback?” on Page 87 if you
haven’t already read it.
If you want to edit multiple phrases on a track at the same time, you can define a region
that includes the phrases.
Earlier V-Studios referred to regions as “tracks.” Some of the VS-2480’s editing features
also use this word instead of “region.”
