[RWP] Selecting the space between one marker to another?

Mon Jan 6 23:17:07 EST 2014

Get familiar with these and assign them keyboard shortcuts to  speed workflow.

Select all items - basically similar to select all and select all items in the project
Select all items in time selection - Select all items on all tracks in the project with in the start and end markers.
Select all items on all selected tracks in time selection Select all items only on the tracks you selected wit in your start and end marker
Select all item on track selects all items on your selected track.
Needless to say i bounded these in macros with custom actions to speed workflow. But with those actions above all you need to do is set your start point, set yur end point use the appropriate select items command for what you are attempting . No having to select all the items on the track with ctrl+shift+arrow keys or etc. and no splitting needed unless like i said earlier you need to add take effects or change volume/ pan etc for the selection only.
There is also a split at selection action that makes splitting a lot quicker as you don’t have to split at the start and end point separately.
