There are two main uses for the Clips browser in the Editor window:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Reusing existing clips</li>
|
||||
<li>Creating new clips from content in the timeline</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Reusing existing clips</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You have two options how to reuse a clip in the Editor.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Add to an existing track. Dragging and dropping a clip from the browser
|
||||
on an existing track will add this clip to a location on the timeline
|
||||
where you released the mouse button, snapping options apply. Audio clips
|
||||
can only be placed on audio tracks, MIDI clips can only be placed on MIDI
|
||||
tracks. Additionally, placing a single-channel (mono) clip
|
||||
on a multi-channel track will create a clip where only one channel
|
||||
is filled with the content of the original clip, the rest of the channels will be silent.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Create a new track. Dragging and dropping a clip below the bottom track
|
||||
will create a new track from the clip and name it after the clip's file name.
|
||||
Ardour will make a few judgements based on clip properties: the track will
|
||||
contain as many channels as the audio file has. And for a MIDI clip, Ardour
|
||||
will automatically add the "preview" virtual instrument of choice
|
||||
to the processor box.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Creating new clips</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You can create new clips for further reuse in the Editor window. Please see
|
||||
the <a href="@@managing-custom-clips">Managing Custom Clips</a> page
|
||||
for more detail.
