Editing operations in a Digital Audio Workstation like Ardour can be broken down according to how many points on the timeline are required to carry the operation out. Splitting a region for example, requires just one position on the timeline (the one where the split will happen). Cutting out a time range requires two positions, one for the start of the cut and one for the end.

In Ardour the edit point is the location where most single-point editing operations take place. It can be defined as one of the 3 possibilities:

The default edit point is the location of the pointer.

-

There are 2 keybindings available to cycle through the edit point options; the most common workflow tends to involve just switching back and forth between edit point = playhead and edit point = mouse (default `). Another binding ^ will cycle through all three choices (including the selected marker). You can also switch the edit point using a combo-selector just right of the snap/grid unit selector.

You can also switch the edit point using a combo-selector just right of the snap/grid unit selector.

Implicit Range

In addition to explicit range selections made with the Range tool, Ardour also provides an implicit edit range. This edit range can be very useful if you want to edit by ear, rather than by mouse. If there is no regions selected, and no explicit range selection, then any editing operations that require a range (such as separate) will use the implicit edit range.

The implicit range is the area between the current edit point and some other position. In most cases it is either:

Many editing operations in Ardour require you to first select one or more regions that you want to change in some way. You can select a single region, or multiple regions, including regions in different tracks. When you select a region, it will appear in a darker color than unselected regions.

Note that if a track is a member of a group that is active and has the "Select" property enabled, then Ardour will attempt to match whatever selections you make in one track across every other track of the group. See Selection Equivalence for more information on precisely how selections will be propagated to other tracks.

Ardour's editor utilizes a grid to assist in the placement of regions on the timeline, or with editing functions that need to happen on a specific time. With these buttons you can choose if you want the cursor and various objects to snap to this grid, and how you want the snapping to act. You can also modify what units the grid measures as well to fit your needs.

-

With grid mode set to "No Grid", all kind of objects can be moved freely along the timeline. "Grid" will restrict the positions to certain grid units (i.e. beats), "Magnetic" will snap to grid units, but it is still possible to move objects to other places.

Snap Modes

+

Ardour supports three different types of snapping to the grid:

+
+
No Grid
+
disables the grid. All objects move freely in this mode.
+
Grid
+
activates normal snapping. All positions of objects are restricted to points of the grid. (See Grid Units below to change these points) If you try to move an object in "Grid"-mode, it does not change its position until you move the mouse far enough for the object to reach the next grid point. New objects will always be created at grid points, too.
+
Magnetic
+
is a less strict type of snapping. Objects can still be moved to any position, but positions close to grid points will snap to the grid point. In order to move an object very close to a grid point, it may be necessary to zoom in to prevent snapping to that point.

Syncing Regions to the Grid

By default a region's beginning will snap to points along the timeline, but you can change this behaviour by setting a sync point in the region. Select the region(s) and press v . This will set the sync point to your edit point.

    Fixed-Time Motion

    Sometimes, you want to move a region to another track, but keeping its position along the timeline exactly the same. To do this, use Middle-click-drag instead.

    Region Fades

    +

    Regionfades are possible at the beginning and end of all audio regions. In Object Mode a grip appears at the top left and top right of an audio region when the cursor hovers over it. Placing the cursor over the top of the grip displays the regionfade cursor tip. Click and drag the grip left or right in the timeline to adjust the length of the fade.

    +

    To activate/deactivate or change the "style" of the Regionfade, hover the cursor over the regionfade grip till the cursor tip indicates regionfade editing and context-click (right-click) to bring up a context menu. In the context menu there is a list of options for the regionfade. Activate/Deactivate enables and disables the regionfade. The different types of fades are, Liner, Slow, Fast, Symmetric and Constant Power

    + +

    Crossfades

    +

    Crossfades refer to the behavior of a regionfade when regions overlaps another region. Crossfades are regionfades. When one region overlaps another and there is a regionfade on the top region the fade-out will be mirrored as a fade-in on the underlying region. The grip for the top region will allow changing the length and type of the crossfade.

    You may have a situation where you've positioned one region over another, and you just want to cut the lower region so that it directly adjoins both ends of the overlapping one, with no overlaps. To do this, select the upper region, then choose Edit > Separate > Separate Under. This will split the lower region so that it no longer overlaps the upper region at all. Here is an example where we start with a short region placed so that it overlaps a longer region:
