Editing the Drums and Guitar
In this part of the exercise, you will remove the silence from the beginning of
the DrumLoop and Guitar clips. You will also trim the drum pattern to make
it shorter and add a fade-out effect at the end. Lastly, you will extend the
guitar pattern by duplicating a portion of it and then trim out the last clip so
that it ends naturally.
