Separating Multiple Tracks
The following figure illustrates a separation across
one mono audio track and two stereo tracks. For
some tracks, the selection resides within a clip,
while others reside at the start or end of a clip.
Once separated, this material can be moved or cop-
ied to another location.
Separation Grabber Tool
You can use the Separation Grabber tool to auto-
matically separate an Edit selection and move it to
another location or another track.
To separate a selection with the Separation
Grabber tool:
1 With the Selector tool, make an Edit selection.
The selection can reside within a single clip,
across adjacent clips within the same track, or
across multiple tracks.
2 From the Grabber tools pop-up menu, choose
the Separation Grabber tool.
3 Drag the selection to the new location, or to an-
other track.
A new clip (or clips) containing the previous selec-
tion is created, separate from the original selection.
New clips are also created from the material out-
side the original selection.
