To add transient markers at Pool lines
1. Select the Smart tool in the Control Bar.
2. Assign the track’s Edit Filter control to Audio Transients.
3. Make sure that the Pool contains markers from at least one clip, or from the Time Ruler.
4. Select the clips that you want to add markers to.
5. Right-click a selected clip and choose Pool > Apply transient pool markers on the pop-up
menu.
Markers appear on the selected clips at Pool lines. When aligning clips on multiple tracks, it is
necessary to split and/or quantize all clips at the exact same position in order to avoid phase
problems when quantizing audio. In order to do so, it is necessary to establish a common, or
“master”, transient reference pool which can be applied to all tracks. The Apply transient pool
markers command will use the transient pool as a reference, and insert identical transient markers
on all selected clips.
Note: Adding markers at Pool lines can add a lot of markers to a clip. If you later decide that you
want to work with the clip’s original markers, you can remove only the markers that you added
by right-clicking the transient marker, and choosing Reset from the pop-up menu.
