The Sample Editor
Now the beginning of the waveform matches the desired
bar position.
Editing warp tabs can also be useful, if you change the
length of a segment that you have already warped. In this
case, editing warp tabs can help you synchronize your au-
dio again.
Reset
This pop-up menu at the bottom of the VariAudio tab allows
you to reset the modifications you performed in Pitch &
Warp mode (pitch modifications, time modifications or
both). It also lets you reset the changes you made in Seg-
ments mode by reanalyzing the audio and returning to the
original segmentation. The following options are available:
Ö You can set up key commands for the reset and the re-
analyze function in the Sample Editor category of the Key
commands dialog (see “Key commands” on page 479).
Listening to your modifications
You can listen to the results of your modifications using
the following methods:
• By activating Acoustic Feedback on the toolbar.
The segments will be played back when you adjust the pitch or while
nudging, navigating and selecting segments. This way you can easily au-
dition your modifications while editing.
• By using the Play tool on the toolbar.
• By using the Audition and the Audition Loop tool on the
toolbar.
• By using cycle playback in the Project window.
If you want to compare the original to the modified audio
(i.e. hear the audio without pitch or warp modifications),
you have the following possibilities:
• You can disable your pitch modifications by activating
the Disable Pitch Changes button in the VariAudio tab or
by setting up and using the “VariAudio: Disable Pitching”
key command in the Key Commands dialog, Sample Edi-
tor category (see “Key commands” on page 479).
• You can disable your warp modifications by activating the
Disable Warp Changes button in the AudioWarp tab or by
setting up and using the “Disable Warping” key command
in the Key Commands dialog, Sample Editor category (see
“Key commands” on page 479).
Functions – Extract MIDI…
If you want to create an identical second voice with a MIDI
Instrument, or print out the notes from within the Score Ed-
itor, you can extract a MIDI part. You can later export the
MIDI part as a MIDI file (see “Exporting and importing stan-
dard MIDI files” on page 464).
Ö Before extracting MIDI from your audio you should
correct the segmentation, otherwise, you will have to cor-
rect segmentation errors later in the MIDI part. Transition
changes, tilting the micro-pitch curve, pitch quantize and
pitch corrections will be taken into account.
