Moving Clips With Fixed Audio Sources

You can move the clip while the audio source remains fixed in position.

Splitting Clips

You can split clips to turn one clip into two independent clips. The two clips have the same name and settings. Envelopes and fades are converted so that the two clips play back as if they were still one clip.

Prerequisite

Decide whether you want to automatically create crossfades between the left and right clip. To activate/deactivate this option, select the Fade tab, click Options in the Options section, and activate/deactivate Create Default Fades in New Clips.

Procedure

1. In the montage window, click the position where you want to split the clip.
2. Do one of the following:
• To split clips on one track, position the mouse cursor on the edit cursor position in the top clip area and double-click.
  The cursor becomes a pair of scissors.
  To split clips on all tracks at the edit cursor or playback position, select the Edit tab, right-click Split Clips in the Split section, and select Split Clips on All Tracks.
  To split each selected clip on all tracks at the edit cursor or playback position, select the Edit tab, right-click Split Clips in the Split section, and select Split Selected Clips.

Inline Editing

You can edit clips inline in a non-destructive Waveform Editor or Spectrum Editor.

When you open a selection range in an inline editor, WaveLab Pro creates a copy of the original audio file. The copy is stored in the data folder of the audio montage. This allows you to edit a selection range without modifying the original audio file.

You can edit clips in inline editors without changing the original audio files.

Procedure

1. In the montage window, make a selection range.
2. Select the Edit tab.
3. In the Editors section, click Waveform Editor or Spectrum Editor.
   The audio range opens in the selected inline editor.
4. In the inline editor, make your edit.
