7.3.7 Editing in Capture

All audio that exists within the timeline of your Session will be visually represented by
Audio Events, which contain waveform representations of the recorded audio. Audio
Events can be moved and split, among other possibilities, as described as follows.
Mouse Tools
Arrow Tool
SOFTWARE —Universal Control, Capture and StudioLive Artist
The mouse tools allow direct interaction with Audio Events using the mouse. It is
helpful to remember that actions done using the Mouse tools can be undone at
any time, so you can feel free to explore their functionality without permanently
altering anything. The following Mouse Tools and related functions are available.
This is the default selected tool. Click on the Arrow Tool button, or press
[NumPad 1] on the keyboard to select the Arrow Tool. The following
describes various possible functions using the Arrow Tool.
Move an Audio Event
To move an event using the Arrow Tool, click anywhere on the event and
drag left, right, up, or down. Dragging the event left or right will move the
event backward and forward in time, relative to the Timeline zoom.
Dragging the event up or down will move the Audio
Event to the adjacent Audio Track.
Size an Audio Event
Events can be thought of as windows into audio files, where what
you see is what you will hear. Sizing is a fundamental technique
wherein Audio Events are made shorter or longer, so that only a
portion of the audio they contain is seen, and therefore heard.
To size any Audio Event using the Arrow Tool, float the mouse to the
left or right edge of the event to reveal the Sizing Tool. When this tool
appears, click and drag left or right to size the event. Audio Events
can be sized and resized nondestructively any number of times.
The pictures above illustrate an Audio Event before and after it is sized.
Select Multiple Audio Events
Multiple Audio Events can be selected at once in order to edit
them all at once with a single action. To select multiple Audio
Events with the Arrow Tool, do one of the following:
