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:
• Click outside of the range of an Audio Event, and then drag
over any other events; a gray box will be drawn while you drag
over the target selection area. Release the click once the box
is drawn over all of the events you wish to select, and these
events will now all be selected and can be edited at once.
• Click on any event, and then while holding [Ctrl]/[Cmd] on the
keyboard click on any other events to select them. This allows
you to select multiple events that are not close in proximity to
each other. All selected events can now be edited at once.
The Range Tool is used to select a range, or area, within Audio Events.
Click on the Range Tool button or press [NumPad 3] on the keyboard to
select the Range Tool.
To select a range within events, using the Range Tool, click-and-
drag over the area to be selected; a gray box will be drawn over the
target selection area. Release the click once the box is drawn over
the range of the events you wish to select. The range of the events
you have selected is now treated as a single consolidated event.
• A common use of the Range Tool is to quickly select and delete
a range of audio within events, rather than using the Split Tool
to make two splits, then selecting and deleting the section with
the Arrow Tool. This process is shown in the pictures below.
