Hello Everyone,
I have a 9 minute song. I wanted to split it into two 4 and a half minute songs.
Can not find any way in the help file or menus to do a simple track split, whether on one track or multiple tracks.
All I can find is how to split a piano track which has nothing to do with splitting audio or midi tracks, or splitting an entire multi track song at once.
Thanks
MidiVox

Highlite the second section you want to move (highlite section of one track, then hold CTRL and click on the other desired tracks to select them)
Then click 'Cut' and cut that second section. (it goes to the clipboard)
Move to the next available blank track and highlite it by clicking on it.
Click 'Paste' and select exactly where you want to paste it (time wise). Click OK and the the tracks should copy to the next available blank tracks, in order.
Use 'save as' to save it as a new file name so you don't overwrite what you had.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Hi All, Rharv
Ok, so simple splitting a track does not exist in real band.
I only have 8 tracks, so using cut and paste is doable.
Happy Composing and Recording

I don't think there is a command on the menu labelled "SPLIT A TRACK" but I think you can split the track in the audio edit window.
The procedure is:
1) double click on a track to open it in audio edit window
2) click the button at the top of the audio edit window to hilight the whole track
3) shift-click at the place where you want to divide the track. (see note below)
After splitting you can drag the two parts to different locations if there are tempo issues
(control-click-drag the hilited segment)
I just discovered this recently, and I LOVE this feature! It is a great way to fix timing issues on passages I play directly into the song myself. The Real Tracks are always perfectly timed, so if my playing is not, it stands out noticeably. Until discovering this I was exporting tracks and fixing them in other software then bringing them back into RB which was a real hassle. This is just another of the many features that makes RB/BIAB one of the most user friendly music apps I have found.
----
NOTE: this just works on one track at a time. If you tried it on multiple tracks one at a time, you would probably introduce timing errors between the tracks. RHarv's suggestion is the easiest way to divide all tracks in the song at exactly the same place at the same time.

Pat i have fooled with the audio edit window a time or two, but it never seems to save the edit. Is there a click or two that saves the edit so that it shows in the track?

What are you doing that doesn't get saved? If you save the file every edit gets saved.
Even if you don't save yet, the edits show in the Tracks here ..

Rob,
all I do is click the [x] in the top right corner of the window to exit the audio edit environment. So far it seems to save whatever I did automatically upon exiting.
whe I say it saves it, I mean it saves to the project environment... upon exiting, the track behaves like it is split.
You can tell if a track has been split because there is a vertical line visible in the track... also, if you click on either side of the split, only one part or the other will be hilighted.
Naturally, it isn't saved to DISK until you save the project.
I like this because timing is my main problem. This window makes it very easy to scroll through the passage I just played to see how the peaks of my WAV line up with the timing markers. When they don't, I just split and drag until they do. This has saved me a LOT of headaches since I learned it was there.
