Many of the editing operations that are commonly used in the context of your computer operating system can be applied when editing envelope curves. On top of these, a number of specific procedures apply.
Choices
- To delete a curve point, double-click the curve point. The curve point between the sustain and fade parts of the envelope cannot be deleted.
- To select multiple curve points, hold down Ctrl/Cmd and click the curve points that you want to select.
- To select a range of points, Alt-click and drag to create a selection rectangle.
- To delete multiple curve points, select the curve points that you want to delete, right-click one of the points, and select Delete Selected Points.
- To move all selected points, click one of the selected points and drag.
- To raise or lower the value of two consecutive curve points, Ctrl/Cmd-click the segment between the points and drag up or down.
- To change the time position of two consecutive curve points, Shift-click the segment between the points and drag left or right.
- To raise or lower the entire envelope curve, make sure that no curve point is selected, click the envelope curve, and drag up or down. Do not drag a segment that is limited by selected points.
- To adjust the envelopes in all selected clips, hold down Alt, and drag any envelope curve up or down. This is a quick way to adjust the level or pan of multiple clips at the same time and also to adjust both sides of a stereo envelope simultaneously.
- To move a fade in/fade out point vertically, Ctrl/Cmd-click and drag the fade point.
- To change the level or the fade in/out time of multiple envelopes at the same time, select the clips that you want to edit, press Alt, and edit the envelope with the mouse.
