5 Ways to Copy Regions in ProTools 8

In Pro Tools there are 50 ways to do most everything. In this screencast I show you 5 ways to copy a region (as well as multiple regions) in Pro Tools 8, including all their keyboard shortcuts. Enjoy!


I know, there are 150 other dudes on Youtube that show you the same thing. But @RobinFrederick reminded me once that people need to see the same things from multiple sources because one time it will really click for them. I hope this screencast made it click for you.

Do you have another and/or better way you like to copy regions? Please let us know in the comments.

@TheAudioGeek pointed out a few I left out: 1) Commands Focus keyboard shortcuts for copy/paste: C = copy, V = paste; 2) You can access copy/paste options from the right click menu; and 3) the keyboard shortcut to open the Region Looping dialog is op+cmd+L. Thanks @TheAudioGeek!

Happy ProTooling!
