METHODS FOR WORKING WITH OBJECTS 131
Locking objects
Just click the key symbol on the lower border of each object to protect an object
against accidental moving. This function corresponds with the "Lock" command in the
object editor.
Clicking on the key symbol again unlocks the object.
Multiple selected objects may be locked with a mouse click.
The menu entry "Object -> Lock objects -> Lock objects" applies to single and multiple
objects.
If you wish to lock all objects of a track, click on the lock symbol in the track overview box
or Track Editor.
Locking against fades, changes to length, or deleting may be set via "Object -> Lock
objects -> Lock definitions".
Temporarily disable the lock function by holding down the "Alt" key while clicking objects.
Editing an object destructively
By editing an object destructively, to add complicated effects to the audio material, severe
loads on the CPU may be reduced during playback in the virtual project (VIP).
To edit an object destructively, right click the object to access its context menu and select
"Wave Editing". The wave project will open. The wave may now be edited as desired.
Samplitude now functions as a wave editor (view page 108).
If an a
udio file that is contained in multiple VIP objects is edited in destructive mode via
"Object -> Wave Editing", then all of the associated objects in the VIP will access this
audio file. For example, if reverb is added to an audio file in destructive mode, all objects
that reference this audio file will now feature reverb.
On the other hand, to edit only certain objects destructively, select the command "Object -
> Edit a copy of wave content". Samplitude will produce a copy of the audio material and
add this to the project folder. The selected objects will now refer to the copy that is
created. Following this, destructive effects may be applied to the selected objects without
influencing other objects.
The button "Advanced options (view page 601)" in the corresponding effects dialog
provides access to saving opti
ons for the copy.
