Using SoundReplacer
Following are basic guidelines for using
SoundReplacer effectively. Also see “Getting
Optimum Results with SoundReplacer” on
page 497.
To use SoundReplacer:
1 On the source track, select the audio you want
to replace. Only selected audio will be replaced.
2 Choose SoundReplacer from the AudioSuite
menu.
3 Click the Load Sound icon (the icon beneath
the yellow slider) to import the replacement
sound for amplitude zone 1.
4 Locate the desired audio file and click Open.
5 Adjust the amplitude zone slider.
6 Repeat steps 3–5 to load replacement sounds
into amplitude zones 2 and 3.
7 To align the amplitude peak in the replacement
file(s) to threshold trigger markers in the source
audio, enable
Peak Align.
8 Click Preview to audition the replacement au-
dio.
9 Adjust the Threshold sliders to fine tune audio
replacement triggering.
10 Adjust the Dynamics slider to fine tune how
SoundReplacer tracks and matches changes in
the source audio’s dynamics.
11 Adjust the Mix slider to get the desired bal-
ance between replacement audio and source au-
dio.
12 Adjust the AudioSuite File controls. These
settings will determine how the file is rendered
and what effect the rendering will have on the
original clips. Here are some guidelines:
Decide where the selected clip should be ren-
dered:
• To render the selected clip only in the track
in which it appears, choose
Playlist from the
Selection Reference pop-up.
– or –
• To render the selected clip in the Audio Clip
List only, choose
Clip List from this pop-up.
Decide if you want to update every occurrence
of the selection clip:
• To render and update every occurrence of
the selected clip throughout your session,
enable
Use In Playlist (and also choose Clip
List
from the Selection Reference pop-up).
– or –
• If you do not want to update every occur-
rence of the selected clip, disable
Use In
Playlist
.
If you have selected multiple clips for render-
ing and want to create a new file that connects
and consolidates all of these clips together,
choose
Create Continuous File from the File
mode pop-up menu.
13 From the Destination Track pop-up, choose
the destination for the replacement audio.
14 Click Render.
If you use only a single replacement sample,
you should still set all three amplitude zones
for optimum results. This will ensure accu-
rate triggering. For details, See “Mapping
The Same Sample Into Multiple Amplitude
Zones with SoundReplacer” on page 498.
Because SoundReplacer does not allow de-
structive rendering, the AudioSuite Over-
write Files option is not available.
