Adjust markers: Audio clips can
have markers associated with
them., which can be useful for
marking points of interest. Markers
are discussed in Chapter 1.9. Note
that markers are a property of the
underlying audio item, not the clip.

will impact all clips that share the same source audio le in this project. Clicking this button displays a
pop-up menu (Fig. 4.6.6) with three options:

position of the marker will be determined by the position of the play-head cursor.

marker that is located nearest to the play-head cursor will be removed.

gions from clips. All of these options are non-destructive.
