Alternatively, you can use the scissors mouse mode. Use it to click on the parts of the
waveform where you want to split the recording. Objects that are no longer required
can now be removed from the track with the delete tool or Del key.
If you cut objects, a short fade is created automatically at the cut position to prevent
crackling.
If you separate the material into small objects, you can rearrange the order entirely.
For such arrangements we recommend using the second track (view page 150),
which can be
used for shifting the objects.
To find the best positions for object cuts we recommend working with a zoomed
waveform display. Use the zoom functions (view page 41) for this.
Join and mix objects
When you push an object from the right over the object to its left, it will cover it like
one sheet of paper covers another (completely or just in part). The invisible part of an
object will not be played.
The program automatically inserts a crossfade between the two joined objects if the
fader-handle of the second object is dragged a bit to the right. This is another method
to remove clicks.
A fade in a selected object is represented by a Crossfade symbol.
The shape of the crossfade curve can be changed by clicking on this symbol. You can
also apply the Surround Transitions here.
You can make the invisible part of the second object visible (and audible) again just
by moving the second object to the right.
You can do the same using the second track. Passages that are overlapping on two
tracks will be played as overlapping. Now you can search for your ideal mix using the
volume and the length handle, cutting your object and moving it.
Fading objects
With every cut the two objects that are created are slightly crossfaded in order to
avoid crackling. This is called Auto crossfade. A crossfade is also added if two objects
in a track are moved into each other or overlap each other.
A crossfade symbol is added to each crossfade. By clicking on the symbol, you
can change the curve of the transition.
The top handle of the right object allows you to regulate the fading in and out of both
objects.
