168 Chapter 5 Working in the Timeline
Using the Multitrack Timeline and the File Editor Together
One of the unique advantages of Soundtrack Pro is the combination of nondestructive
waveform editing in the context of a multitrack Timeline. This section focuses on how
you can exploit this powerful toolset in your sound editing project.
Making Changes in the File Editor and Hearing Them in the Timeline
When you arrange a multitrack project, you frequently need to edit and adjust
individual audio files, and immediately hear the results in the context of the larger
multitrack Timeline. You can do this by using the Timeline and File Editor in tandem.
To make changes in the File Editor and hear the results in the Timeline:
1 With the File Editor tab active, select a clip in the Timeline that you would like to adjust.
The waveform for the clip appears in the File Editor.
2 Make adjustments and edits to the clip in the File Editor.
