Clips

A clip contains a reference to a source audio file on your hard disk, as well as start and end positions in the file, envelope curves, fades, etc. This allows clips to play back smaller sections of their source audio files.

Any number of clips can reference the same source file. Because a clip only references to the original source file, it contains no audio data. Any number of clips can reference the same source file.
