9. To eliminate any clicks that might occur between the recordings in the different segments of our clip, let’s in-
troduce some crossfades.
Crossfades can be applied by first selecting a Cut Handle and then clicking with the Selection Tool and dragging
the Cut Crossfade Handles that appear above the selected Cut Handle:
The crossfade slopes are indicated by curves on the assigned Segments. The longer the crossfade time, the flatter
the curves.
Repeat the procedure for the other Cut Crossfade Handles in the clip if needed.
q If you want to set the same crossfade time for several Cuts, select the Cut Handles and use the “Match Value”
function in the Inspector (see “Matching Cut Crossfades”).
10.Finally, you might want to trim the audio levels of the different recordings on the Comp Rows in the clip.
Click with the Selection Tool and drag the Comp Row Level Faders on the respective Comp Row to achieve a bal-
anced audio level throughout the clip. The Comp Row level adjustments can be made anytime during the creation
of the comped audio clip.
Adjusting the individual Comp Row audio levels
q If you want to set the same level for several Comp Rows, select the Comp Rows and use the “Match Value”
function in the Inspector (see “Matching Comp Row Levels”).
When you’re satisfied with your comped clip, you might want to use the "Bounce Clip to New Recording" function to
create a single recording that plays back your comp (see “Bounce Clip(s) to New Recording(s)”).
This helps you keep things organized and can be a way to create a "snapshot" of your current comp, for comparison
while you continue to fine-tune the edits.
If you're finished with a comp and want to keep the file size down, you can use "Bounce Clip to New Recording" to-
gether with the "Delete Unused Recordings" function to permanently remove all original takes (see “Delete Unused
Recordings”).
