Pro Tools 101_ An Introduction to Pro Tools 11 ( PDFDrive )

In the next section of the project, you will use a variety of techniques to
manipulate audio clips.
Import an Audio File to a Track
As you’ve already seen, the Workspace browser is a great resource for
locating, opening, and importing all sorts of media files. For this part of the
project, you will use the Workspace browser to import an audio file
containing an electronic loop for the song.
Locate the Groove-E audio file with the Workspace browser:
1. Choose WINDOW > NEW WORKSPACE to open the Workspace browser.
Shortcut: You can also press ALT+; (Windows) or OPTION+; (Mac) to
open or close a Workspace browser.
2. Click the ADVANCED SEARCH button (next to the magnifying glass) to
display the advanced search settings.
3. Type Groove-E in the text field and click the ADD ROW button (plus sign)
to add a second search filter.
4. Specify [KIND] [IS] [AUDIO FILE] using the pop-up menus in the
second row.
After a few moments the Groove-E.wav file will appear in the
Workspace browser.
Drag the audio file to the Groove-E Audio track:
1. Reposition the Workspace browser, if necessary, so you can see both the
Groove-E track in the Edit window and the Groove-E audio file in the
Workspace browser.
2. Drag the GROOVE-E audio file from the Workspace browser onto the
Groove-E track in the Edit window.
3. Use the GRABBER tool to drag the Groove-E file to start at 13|1|000.
Tip: Use the Bars|Beats Ruler as a reference while positioning the
Groove-E file.
