With regard to clips, resizing means adjusting their start and end points, to reveal more or less of the original audio file.

Procedure

  1. Hover over the left or right edge of a clip.
  2. When the Trim icon appears, click and drag to the left or to the right, and release the mouse button as soon as the audio is resized to your liking.
    Note
    • You cannot drag the edge of a clip past the start or end point of the audio file to which it refers.

    Tip
    • To resize multiple selected clips by the same value, press Alt when dragging.

    Note
    After resizing clips, the audio to the left or to the right of their edges has not been erased but is still available. Instead, it is temporarily inactive; that is, excluded from view, editing, and processing. This is indicated by small red arrows, so-called Clip Side Cues (1), at the right/left edge of the clip. You can hover over a clip side cue to display information about the length of the currently inactive audio in the clip. The time unit is based on the time ruler settings.Clip side cues and information about additional audio samples at the beginning of the clip

After Completing This Task

Optional: To reveal audio information that is currently excluded from view, editing, and processing again, hover over the left or right border of the clip. When the Trim icon appears, click and drag to the left or to the right, and release the mouse button as soon as the audio is resized to your liking.
