AUDIO EDITING IN THE SEQUENCER
228
Creating a comped audio clip
If you have recorded more than one loop cycle of audio in Loop Mode (see “Recording audio in Loop mode”), or re-
corded over or into an existing audio clip (see “Recording over or into an existing audio clip”), each recording has
been placed on a separate Comp Row. If you like, you can now select the best parts (segments) of the recordings on
the various Comp Rows and create a final “comped” audio clip. All editing described below is non-destructive and can
be changed at any time:
1. Open the audio clip in Comp Edit mode.
Each take has generated a separate Comp Row, each with a separate recording on it. The latest take, on the top-
most Comp Row, is the one that will play back.
An audio clip (in Single Take Mode) with four separate takes recorded in Loop Mode.
! If the clip is in Single Take Mode, because a Single Take Mode button is depressed (as in the picture above),
you will have to click that Single Take Mode button to deselect the Comp Row before you can start adding
Cuts!
2. Locate the best parts of the recordings in the different Comp Rows.
Audition the recordings on the Comp Rows to decide which recordings to use at what position in the comped clip.
Select the Speaker Tool and click-hold at desired positions on the different Comp Rows (see “Speaker Tool” for
details).
q If you’re using the Selection Tool, you can temporarily switch to the Speaker Tool by holding down
[Alt]+[Shift](Win) or [Cmd]+[Shift](Mac).
