BEFORE MOVE
AFTER MOVE
You can also move a sound by using the keyboard. Select a sound or group of sounds and then use the arrow
keys to move the sounds. By holding down the Ctrl and Shift key, you can move the sound(s) in different
increments.
The sound(s) will move based on the snap settings (if you cannot move a sound to a specific location it is probably
because snap is on and you need to turn it off).

Drag to the left or right to get the desired trim. Zoom in or use the snap setting to trim with better precision.
