— Fill: Fills the current range on a track from end to end with the clipboard clip. Without the need to cut, copy and paste, Fill automatically duplicates the clipboard clip, with a slight overlap and fade to stitch together background noise or room tone within the marked range.
— B/F Fill: Back/Front Fill works exactly the same as Fill, except that it reverses the audio in every second copy of the clipboard used for filling. Alternating the direction of the stitched clips is useful for creating a seamless background sound because the waveform is continuous.
Alternate Picture Key Toolsets
In the Alternate picture key layout mode, all of the picture keys are text only, with the Editor mode keys arranged in the lower center white text. The menu keys are easy to spot with yellow text and a mark in the upper left corner. Alternate Edit, Monitor, and Mix mode toolsets include action keys in the six soft keys to the left of the jog wheel for quick access. For example, in Edit mode, the Cut, Copy, Erase, Fade, Nudge, and Trim action keys are all located in the upper-left corner of the picture keyboard, while the action keys associated with the active action key appear in the picture keys near the jog wheel. For example, if the Copy action key is latched, the Copy Clip, Copy Head, and Copy Tails keys are available near the jog wheel. If you latch the Cut action key, the middle keys near the jog wheel change to Cut Clip, Cut Head, and Cut Tail.
Alternate picture key toolsets include the same keys as the default normal layout. The difference is the location of the keys, how they are grouped, and the additional usage of the picture keys near the jog wheel.
