Working with Multitrack Projects

Overlap Mode

The project overlap mode determines what happens when you move an audio clip so
that it partially or completely overlaps another clip in the Timeline. There are two
overlap modes: crossfade mode and truncate mode.

In crossfade mode, when you drag an audio clip so that it partially overlaps another
audio clip in a track in the Timeline, a crossfade is created for the overlapped part of
the two audio files. You can adjust the boundaries of the crossfade in the Timeline. In
truncate mode, when you drag an audio clip so that it partially overlaps another audio
clip in a track in the Timeline, the overlapped part of the clip is truncated.

To set the project overlap mode:

m

Click the Crossfade Mode button to set the project to crossfade mode, or click the
Truncate Mode button to set the project to truncate mode.

Envelope Selection Mode

The project selection envelope mode determines whether, when you select or move a
clip in the Timeline, the associated envelope points are also selected or moved with the
clip. You can set Soundtrack Pro to either the Select Only Clips mode or the Select
Envelope Points With Clips mode.

To select and move clips and envelope points together:

m

Click the Select Envelope Points With Clips button at the top of the Timeline.

To select and move clips and envelope points independently of each other:

m

Click the Select Only Clips button at the top of the Timeline.
