Cutting Segments

If a segment includes more than one note, you can cut it in two.

Prerequisite

You have opened the audio in the Sample Editor, and activated Edit VariAudio in the VariAudio section.

Procedure

  1. Select one or several segments.
  2. On the Sample Editor toolbar, activate Audition to audition the segments.
  3. Compare the segments with the pitch curve for each note.
  4. If a segment includes more than one note, do one of the following:

    • Use the smart control for Cut Segment on the bottom edge of the segment, and click.

    • Hold down Alt, and click anywhere above the smart control for Cut Segment.

Result

The segment is cut in two and the average pitch is recalculated.

Note

Cutting a segment may lead to a different average pitch and therefore to a pitch change.

After Completing This Task

If cutting the segment results in a wrong pitch, move the segment vertically.
