The Sample Editor
Now the beginning of the segment matches the beginning
of the bar, but we want the beginning of the waveform to
match the beginning of the bar:
3. Point at the warp handle displayed in the ruler so that
it turns into a double arrow and drag it to the beginning of
the waveform.
The background is displayed in orange to indicate which part of the
waveform is affected by the change.
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

you to reset the modifications you performed with the Pitch
& Warp tool. It also lets you reset the changes you made in
Segments mode by reanalyzing the audio and returning to
