Clipboard
The clipboard allows you to store and manage file clips for future use. Maybe you've got a comedy clip you want to add to the beginning of a song. Or perhaps you want to see what it would sound like if Nine Inch Nails chimed in during The Partridge Family's "I Think I Love You."
To create a clip
- Select a portion of a track.
- Click on the arrow next to "Clipboard 1" and select clipboard 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 from the drop-down menu.
- Choose Edit > Copy.
The track portion you selected will be "saved" to the clipboard you specified.
Note that duration and the properties of the track portion you copied are listed below each respective clip. If a clip is not currently copied to a clipboard, that clipboard will appear "Empty."
To play a clip
Select a clipboard and click the play button. Once a clip begins playing, the Play button changes to a Stop button, and clicking on it stops the clip.
To remove a clip
To remove a clip from the clipboard, select the clipboard where the file is saved and then simply click on the X located to the left of the Play button. That clipboard window will then indicate that it is empty.
Note: Each time you exit Media Editor , any clips left in the clipboards will not be saved.
Also, only WAV files with the same format can be mixed together. For instance a WAV file with 22.1 khz, 16bit, 1 ch cannot be mixed with a WAV file that is 44 khz, 16 bit, 2 ch.
