Editing Audio and Warping
Working with audio can bring a lot of joy to music production. It can involve your own recorded material, pre-made loops, and re-sampled material; it doesn’t really matter. Live can provide you with many tools to make the most of your experience of audio editing in a corrective and creative way.
Getting audio into Live is one thing, but knowing how to fit the audio into the track, re-work pre-made loops by slicing and dicing, making sure that unwanted noise and breaths are properly edited out of vocals, and fading out a guitar chord, for example, is another.
These are all crucial skills that a music producer needs to have to be able to create efficiently.
In this chapter we are going to cover the following key topics:
- Exploring the Clip View, Sample Box, and the loop
- Audio editing functions
- Understanding warping in Live
