Hi Ashley,

I'm sorry... what I meant to say is selection.

When I select a part of my file and go to edit (or right click) to delete, copy, cut or paste, all those options are greyed out.

Often I will select a portion of a file to save it as a loop or a sample to use elsewhere and save selection as has worked well in the past.

I understand this editor wants a region before it will delete, cut, paste etc... but for some simple tasks, such as deleting extra silence at the beginning and ending of a track, a simple select and delete works well and is fast... also when I make a region and delete it, a gap of nothing is created. I then have to deal with how to mend those two or more parts together... without a grid. It's a lot of work for a simple task.

I know that working with regions is a useful way to work, but I think most people do that sort of editing in their DAW's and leave the smaller more simple finishing tweaks for the 2 track editors.

Thanks for your time.

Niko
