Logic Pro X - Video Tutorial 16 - Editing Audio in the File Editor (aka Sample Editor)

• Edits are desctructive
• Handy "transient mode" button
• Cmd-6

• Pencil tool lets you re-draw the waveform, so you could remove an unwanted "pop"

Alternatively, just delete a tiny segment of the wave form around the blip… but be sure to have "Snap Edits to Zero Crossings" turned on.

• Reverse a cymbal sound with Functions > Reverse.
• Change anchor point to make the cymbal line up with the beat of the song. The anchor point is the point of the clip that snaps to the grid (when we have snap turned on). Drag anchor to move.

• In arrangement view, the anchor is denoted by a little black dot

Functions > Silence removes the audio in the highlighted section, without shuffling the parts left and right.
