Clips

A clip is a segment of audio or MIDI. A clip could be a drum loop, a guitar riff, a verse of a song, a recording take, a sound effect, some dialog, or an entire sound file. Clips are especially useful for arranging audio and MIDI. A clip can also have associated automation data. In Pro Tools | First, clips are created from audio files or MIDI data, and can be arranged in audio and MIDI track. Clips can also be grouped (a “clip of clips”) and looped (repeated).
