Folder Properties dialog
• Event Times—Choose this option to change the starting and ending
times of all events in the selection, leaving the tempo(s) unchanged.
This option is not available if any selected data contains a Groove clip.
• Stretch Audio—Choose this option to cause any audio data in the
selection to stretch or shrink to fit the new end time. This option has no
effect on Groove clips.
• Type (disabled unless Stretch Audio is checked)— (this is a SONAR
Producer feature only) choose options based on the source material:
single voice or instrument versus a group of instruments (ensemble or
polyphonic), and how long you want to wait for processing to finish:
better quality can take a long time if you’re processing several tracks.
• Formant Scaling (disabled unless Stretch Audio is checked)— (this is a
SONAR Producer feature only) possible values range from -2.000 to
2.000 octaves. Formants give a voice its characteristic sound. If you find
that changing the length of your audio changes the timbre too much,
you can raise or lower the formant to try and maintain the
characteristics of the sound.
