Scissor Tool to cut all audio within a group?

Post by wonder »

I'm editing some drums.

Using the scissor tool on a single track is great, but, is there a way to get the scissor tool to "cut" all the tracks within a group?

i.e. I click to cut the Kick Drum track and all the tracks within the drum group get sliced as well.

Yes. Just select the tracks you want to cut. Cut one, and they all should cut in the same place.

I must be doing something wrong or have a group parameter set wrong. I'll try again.

For audio, I think you have to select the soundbites, not the tracks. You can also use Split at counter.
