To slip an audio clip item by subframe units:
1 Open a clip with both video and audio items in the Viewer, then click the audio tab.
2 Move the playhead to the In or Out point of the clip, then press Command-= (equal
sign) to zoom in on the audio waveform as far as possible.
3 Press the Shift key and position the playhead within the frame to a new point with
better sync.
