  1. Hi Madeline,
    Love your Sonic Bloom. Very informative, helpful and beautifully presented.

    My question relates to one tip you gave re cutting time function, shift +control +X.
    It seems to only work for all tracks but I wish to cut one track only. Is there a short cut for this.
    Thanks and warm regards

    1. I’m afraid the Time commands all apply to all tracks at once. If you only want to cut a part from one or at least not all tracks, you need to cut it and then drag the clips to close the gap. There’s no shortcut I know of.
