VariAudio (Cubase only)
You can of course change the segmentation to achieve this, but if you want to pitch
your audio afterwards, this would affect also any non-tonal portions of the audio. If this
is not what you want, proceed as follows:
1. Activate the Pitch & Warp tool and activate the Snap button.
In this example the beginning of the segment does not correspond to the beginning of the
waveform.
2. Move the mouse pointer over the start of the segment so that it becomes a double
arrow and drag the segment start to the beginning of the bar.
The segment border snaps to the grid at the exact bar position.
Now the beginning of the segment matches the beginning of the bar, but we want the
beginning of the waveform to match the beginning of the bar:
3. Point at the warp handle displayed in the ruler so that it turns into a double arrow
and drag it to the beginning of the waveform.
The background is displayed in orange to indicate which part of the waveform is
affected by the change.
Now the beginning of the waveform matches the desired bar position.
Editing warp markers can also be useful if you change the length of a segment that
you have already warped. In this case, editing warp markers can help you synchronize
your audio again.
