"Slip" Tool In Logic?

Hi, BM. Thank you. That sounds like a great suggestion . . .

But . . . the Audio Window? I'm sorry for my ignorance, but could you please point me in the right direction as to how to GET to the Audio Window? I mean I know there's the Arrange, the Mix, the Event, The Score, Transform, etc . . . but I'm not seeing a category where it says "Audio Window". How do I access it?

Thank you very much again for your help.

Thank you very much, Phillip. Now, although I will indeed look this up and do some tests on it right now, I'll ask this quick question here: Is "nudge" a function that actually MOVES the clip? or does it keep the clip in its same relative position while moving the waveform WITHIN the clip?

Thanks again,
Javier

Yes, Phillip. I just confirmed it. Nudge is a command which moves the actual clip/region itself - and not the waveform within the region while keeping the clip/region static/in the same position.

😟

Any other ideas?

Sorry. I just read the initial question that I posted, and realize that it's a bit vague AND ambiguous (a double whammy there for you).

I'm looking for a command in Logic, if there is one, that would allow you to move ONLY the waveform within a region forward or backward while keeping the region itself in the same position.

In visual editing, if you have clip 1, 2, and 3 (cut and edited together in that order) and you want to keep where the cuts specifically take place, but you want to, for example, see a different portion of clip 2 (a few frames earlier, say), then you use the slip tool, which, again, allows you to do this very thing (move only the visual portion of clip 2 one way or the other without loosing the integrity of the cut itself).

Hope that helps clarify a little bit.

" you open a region in the sample editor, you can drag the anchor and depending on the "update arrange position" status, you get a similar effect. Give it a try, anyway... "

Thanks, Bee. I'll give it a try . . . or, um . . . consider giving it a try - 🙂 . . . In this time that I've been mixing my feature in Logic, I've pretty much worked in the Arrange and Mix windows (and ocassionally the Enviornment) . . . Haven't touched the Sample Editor much yet, so, of course, I'm quite a bit intimidated . . .

But I guess I have to go in there and do some work sooner or later eh?

I'll give it a try.

Thanks,
Javier

Man you guys are great.

I don't know WHO to give that darned green star to!

lol

Nope. Didn't miss it at all. Thanks. Haven't looked at it yet though. I went into the Sample Editor window first. I had a little bit of a problem initially because, when I held down the option key and moved the mouse over the selected region, the newly selected region would indeed play, but only in the Sample Editor. It didn't update in the Arrange window (is this a setting issue, by the way, that I should look into?).

I ended up having to manually move the start and end points of the region to a different place . . . and that ultimately accomplished the desired result . . . But I'm thinking that the suggestions that were made on here (particularly by Tim) were designed to have occured in a simple click-and-move mouse manuever. I think I'm missing a step somehow.

All the same, however, and as I mentioned, I did at least figure out a way to accomplish things (moving the start and end points while in the Sample Editor).

Now I'll go click on the link, and read that as well, so that I can learn yet another (possibly quicker) way to do this.

Thank you very much,
Javier
