You need to explain a bit better. No idea what you are taling about. So far I can only answer, you can select as many regions as you have created within an event. Fredo ---

mmm regions are those little colored rectangles containing waveform on a track right ? you might have a looong file but when you edit it you end up with those “regions” (?) are those called regions or something else ? if yes i’m saying is there a way to automatically know how many of those regions are selected (with the select tool)… for exemple in windows browser at the bottom you see how many files are selected and how many are in total. on this picture i have 6 regions and 4 are selected [![Google Photos](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/BoBV9JY3ewUyB-F52XqrJxAloFWSTy-r8Jg1spxXDi2ZoIFh4JG7SZOasil9QEo6Y09Yo1Auev7bHMw6z1CaikNEXEmGgXhPtCHbUmsTKlK7X23ZiObwG1aewie0I0T5x5MHGta-gRw=w254-h315-p-k "New item by Sylvain Moreau") ](https://photos.app.goo.gl/VoRPAZsXqoAUmget7) ---

These are not regions. These are events. (cuts of a longer file) Try this: -Open a file in the Sample editor -Use the range tool to select a region -On the right side, you can now add a region and name it. These regions (or sub-selections) then show up accordingly in the Pool. You can drag them individually into the project, you can batch rename them, you can bounce them into new files, etc … And search the manual for “regions”. HTH Fredo ---

Hi! Did you find a solution to knowing how many audio events are selected? I also created a post asking this… The only way to find out is to use the **Direct Offline Processing** window. To find out how, read my post (link below). > [@Count selected audio events](https://forums.steinberg.net/t/count-selected-audio-events/924097): > > Hi! I have found a way to count the selected audio events using the Direct Offline Processing window, but if I have 200 events totalling about 4 minutes, it takes a while until I get a count number shown… Any suggestions how I might achieve this more easily? P.S. I’m trying to collect evidence that my upstairs neighbours are knocking the floor (or play ball inside their apartment) after 10:00 P.M. It feels like I’m sleeping inside a kick drum at a Rock concert. Seri… ---

Yeah, they used to be called “regions” in Pro Tools, before they were renamed to “clips” somewhere around PT v10. In Cubendo they are called “events”. 🙂
