Editing Audio Take Recordings 15 Imagine a scenario where you have recorded multiple performances of a vocal solo over the same section of a project. In this chapter, you’ll learn how to select the best parts from the different performances, piecing them together into a single master take. This process of combining multiple take recordings into a single perfect composition is referred to as comping and is achieved by using the Quick Swipe Comping feature. In this chapter, you’ll also learn how to drag or cut the contents of take folders. This chapter covers the following: • Getting to Know Take Folders (p. 482) • Previewing Take Folder Recordings (p. 482) • Toggling Take Folder Editing Mode (p. 484) • Creating Comps (p. 486) • Editing Comps (p. 487) • Resizing Take Regions (p. 492) • Cutting Take Folders and Take Regions (p. 493) • Moving Take Folders and Take Regions (p. 496) • Duplicating Comps or Creating New Comps (p. 498) • Renaming Takes or Comps (p. 500) • Deleting Takes or Comps (p. 503) • Exporting Takes or Comps to New Tracks (p. 507) • Moving Takes or Comps to New Tracks (p. 511) • Flattening and Merging Take Folders (p. 515) • Unpacking Take Folders (p. 518) • Packing Regions into a Take Folder (p. 522) • Opening Take Folders in the Sample Editor (p. 523) 481
