The following table summarizes the commands you can use:
The Split command lets you split clips four different ways:
To do this… Use this command… Notes…
Split clips into parts
Split
Works on all selected clips
Create a new clip
from part of an
existing clip
Edit-Create Clips
Erases the selected portion
of the existing clip, and
moves the material into a
new, separate clip
Combine several clips
into one
Combine
If the selected clips are in
separate tracks, the new
clip is placed in the first of
these tracks
Option… How it works…
Split at Time Splits selected clips at a specific point in
time. By default, the split occurs at the
Now time, but you can choose any time
you want.
Split Repeatedly Splits selected clips at regular intervals,
beginning at a specified time, with a
specified duration. For example, you
could split a long clip into 4-bar clips
starting at measure 5.
Split at Markers Splits selected clips at any marker
location. This option is available only if
your project has markers.
Split when Silent Removes “silent” stretches of one
measure or more from selected clips. The
presence in a measure of any event—
including those that make no sound, such
as a patch change or lyric event—will
cause that measure to be retained.
Note:
Combining a stereo and mono clip always produces a stereo clip.
