Editing audio files
Last updated 2/16/2012
Paste audio data
❖
Do either of the following:
•
To paste audio into the current file, place the current-time indicator
where you want to insert the audio or select
existing audio you want to replace. Then choose Edit > Paste.
•
To paste audio data into a new file, choose Edit > Paste To New. The new file automatically inherits the sample type
(rate and bit depth) from the original clipboard material.
Mix audio data when pasting
The Mix Paste command mixes audio data from the clipboard with the current waveform.
1
In the Editor panel, place the current-time indicator
where you want to start mixing the audio data. Alternately,
select the audio data you want to replace.
2
Choose Edit > Mix Paste.
3
Set the following options:
Copied and Existing Audio
Adjust the percentage of each.
Invert Copied Audio
Reverses the phase of copied audio, either exaggerating or reducing phase cancellation if the
existing audio contains similar content. (To understand phase cancellation, see “
How sound waves interact
” on
page 4.)
Modulate
Modulates the amount of copied and existing audio, producing more audible variation.
Crossfade
Applies a crossfade to the beginning and end of the pasted audio, producing smoother transitions. Specify
the fade length in milliseconds.

Delete or crop audio
❖
Do one of the following:
•
Select audio you want to delete, and choose Edit > Delete.
•
Select audio you want to keep, and choose Edit > Crop. (Unwanted audio at the beginning and end of the file is
removed.)
Visually fading and changing amplitude
Though various effects can change amplitude or produce fades, visual fade and gain controls make the task quick and
intuitive. As you drag these controls in the Editor panel, a preview helps you precisely adjust audio.
