What basic editing operation can be performed in Slip Mode?

In Slip Mode, users can freely move audio clips along the timeline without any restrictions, which means they can cut and paste clips to any desired location. This mode allows for flexible editing where clips can be repositioned in a non-destructive way, enabling the arrangement of audio in a more creative and fluid manner. It is particularly useful for tasks such as rearranging sections of a track, adjusting timing, or fine-tuning the placement of clips relative to each other. In this mode, the clips remain unbound, allowing for precise adjustments, making it an essential aspect of the editing process in Pro Tools.

The other options involve operations that are either limited by the constraints of the editing modes or do not accurately represent the nature of Slip Mode. For example, deleting clips or inserting silence can also be done in other modes, but they do not highlight the unrestricted movement characteristic of Slip Mode.
