Editing an audio file

I need to remove small sections of a mono .wav audio file, and just have silence in its place when I join the regions that I actually need, in order to export a single, complete .wav file. It used to work with Join, but now Join just reverts the gap back to the original audio that I removed using split, select and delete Has something changed? How do I do it now?

Now, you have to use "Bounce in Place". And in order to get the same result like before, you have to enable "Bypass Effect Plugi-Ins".


Don't use the "Join" command, use "Join per Tracks" command instead.


The Join command is more of a "re-Join the Region based on the underlying Parent Audio File". The Join per Tracks command will create a new Audio File (and Region), more like a "merge the existing Regions (Parent Audio FIle segments) to a new continuous Audio File (Audio Region).


No need to Bounce in Place, it is just too "messy" for this quick edit.





Hope that helps
