Using the Transient tool
The following table describes how the Transient tool behaves when interacting with transient
markers and clips.
For more information about editing transient markers, see Editing transient markers.
Transient tool (clip) context menu
The Transient tool context menu gives you quick access to commands related to time stretching and
tempo mapping:
• Set project tempo from clip. This command copies the clip’s tempo map to the project’s global
tempo map. This allows the project’s measure boundaries to align with the audio clip. Whenever
the project’s tempo map is generated from a clip, the clip’s Lock Position property is enabled
