Basic Audio Editing

The Track view lets you perform basic editing tasks such as cut, copy, paste, delete,
drag-and-drop, split, and bounce. You can drag fade-ins and fade-outs onto a clip
using your mouse or you can set complex envelopes on both clips and tracks. You
can use envelopes to change settings for gain (volume), pan, mute, bus send level
