How to cut pieces from one big .wav fast?

.
- put the Region on a track
- cut the phrases into Regions
- +Select All+
- +Audio>Convert Regions to New Audio Files+

For convenience, make sure you sit on a comfy chair with the right height for your body size, check that the monitor you're looking at is neither too high nor too low, and take care that the heating is working if you're on the northern hemisphere.

put the Region on a track

Use the Mouse Pointer

cut the phrases into Regions

Use the Scissors

But really, check the manual on those absolute basics, all I could do is quote it and that would be a real waste of electrons and of your and my time.

I find Soundtrack Pro is more suited for this sort of thing.

Or use the Marquee tool and double click where you want to make the cut.

Mike, what is your workflow in STP that makes it quicker than in Logic 9?

I usually open the wav file then create the separate files with New File from Selection.

for cutting audio i have been using the keycommand "split regions / events by playhead"for many years. This is one of my most used keycommands fur cutting audio and midi. If i want to cut/split an object exatly at a quantized point, i stop logic and go to the exact point, otherwise this is extremely usefull for cutting audio "on the fly"

nice regards

Thanks Mike,

I like STP, but I find it equally quick in Logic 9. Maybe I need to expplore the key commands in STP. In Logic I split the file into regions - select the regions right click - Convert to new audio files.

It probably depends what else you're doing, I usually am doing other things too like additional processing and naming each file.

Logic may be easier depending on the situation, I just wanted to remind people that the other option is there.
