You will probably need to trim your recording for length, to remove the sections before and
after the performance. This is called “top-and-tailing”. Touch the Trim button to open the Trim
screen:
The “filmstrip” at the top of the screen and the waveform display now represent the overall duration
of the recording.
Editing in Impact is a similar process to that used in the iPhone’s native camera app. The two white
bars (with double black lines) represent the start and finish of the recording. You can drag these to
the desired locations (i.e., times), to remove the unwanted sections at the beginning and end of the
recording. Both the video and audio elements of the recording are edited simultaneously.
Touch the Save icon when you’re happy with your editing. You’ll then be offered three options:
• Trim Original – select this to add the alterations you’ve just made to the original
recording. The original recording will no longer be available.
• Save as New Recording – select this to save an edited version of the recording, while
keeping the original unedited one.
• Cancel – exits the edit functions and cancels all edits.
Library
Touching the Recordings button from the Preview screen opens the Library of saved recordings.
