Power User Tip: The audio-editing process can be unforgiving: Small inaccuracies when
splitting, moving, or performing other actions on recorded audio can lead to unwanted
results. As simple as it may seem, the act of listening while editing is often overlooked.
For instance, when sizing the edges of a vocal part to remove unwanted sounds
between words, it is tempting to make the edits based on the visual representation of
the waveform. While this may work sometimes, it is much better to listen as you size
the events to be sure you are not removing any critical part of the vocals. Listening
to your edits as you make them will save time and frustration in nearly every case.
