This makes quickly selecting and editing any range of an event very simple.
• The Range Tool can be temporarily toggled when the Arrow Tool is
selected by pressing and holding [Ctrl]\[Cmd] on the keyboard.
Using the Splice Tool, single Audio Events can be split into multiple Audio
Events. Click on the Split Tool button, or press [NumPad 4] on the
keyboard to select the Split Tool.
Click on any Audio Event with the Split Tool to split the event at that
position.
Notice that the split will occur at the leftmost edge of the Split tool icon
(the scissors). By splitting a single event, you create two events that can
be edited independently. If multiple events are selected across multiple
tracks, the Split Tool will affect all of the selected events in the same way.
The Eraser Tool is used to delete an Audio Event. Click on the Eraser Tool
button or press [NumPad 5] on the keyboard to select the Eraser Tool.
• To delete any event using the Eraser Tool, simply click on the
event. The Eraser Tool is unaffected by the current selection
and will only affect the event that is directly clicked on.
As with most other software applications, Capture supports basic
Cut, Copy, and Paste actions. Once a selection of events, or a range of
events, has been made, these actions can be performed as follows:
• Cut: Press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+X on the keyboard to cut the current selection.
• Copy: Press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+C on the keyboard to copy the current selection.
• Paste: Once a selection is cut or copied, press [Ctrl]/[Cmd]+V on the
keyboard to paste the selection. The selection will be pasted to the current
Playback Cursor position, or to the beginning of the track from which the
selection originated if the Playback Cursor is not currently set anywhere.
Listen While Editing.
In audio production, the editing process can be particularly
unforgiving. Small inaccuracies when splitting, moving, or performing
other actions on recorded audio can lead to unwanted results.
As simple as it may seem, the act of listening while editing is often
overlooked. For instance, when sizing the edges of a vocal part to
remove unwanted sounds between words, it is tempting to make the
edits based on the visual representation of the waveform. While this
may work sometimes, it is a much better idea to listen as you size the
events to be sure you are not removing any critical part of the vocals.
Listening to your edits as you make them will save time and frustration.
