Auria Pro - Not cutting properly

[Deleted User][Deleted User]
edited August 2017 in General App Discussion

I have a vocal loaded as audio in AP. What I'm tying to do is select a section, cut this out, and paste it into another track. Just as I've done in previous projects. Only, this time, no matter how carefully I select the section, cut and paste is taking two or three times the length.

Any ideas as to what has gone wrong/ what I'm doing wrong? As far as I can tell nothing has changed. I've tried dismissing AP from memory and starting again, but no joy.

    I'm by no means an audio in Auria expert so i have little to offer in this thread but just to make sure - is snap off?

    Never seen this issue - I cut and paste all the time (was doing it just this morning to some comped vocals).

    Could you post some screenshots of what is happening? Are you using the Split Tool to cut up your audio?

    All I'm doing, as I did successfully in previous projects, is select a section, then use copy or cut from the menu. Then place the cursor, set to events, at the appropriate place, select the track and paste from menus.

    Just tried this again, and blow me down, the first effort worked. Trying it again, selecting a similarly small piece of audio, produced the larger, second in line paste seen in the second screen grab.

    Oh-oh, for no reason I can see, it just started working again. Errrr, wait a minute, it's gone wonky again, cutting more than selected.

    Okay, solved this sort of. If I select desired section, copy, then move handles so that copied section no longer shows, I can paste copy where I want, and the right length. No idea why this works, or what the glitch is. But if anyone else comes across it, this is a quick fix.

    I tend to use the Split Tool to cut the region first, before copying and pasting, rather than the marquee. Just split the region and then tap to select, then copy and paste.

    I think what's happening here is that the marquee tool is copying the entire audio region rather than the small section - it might be determined by the exact way in which the marquee is drawn, will have to test.

    Okay, thanks for the advice. Will try that method next time. FWIW, I was zooming in, carefully selecting the section I wanted, making small adjustments, then using copy or cut from the menu. So, logically, it should have done exactly as instructed, yes?

    Possibly - I'm not sure if it's a bug or a property of the marquee selection, will test and see.

  • richardyotrichardyot

    I just did some testing and I think you're experiencing a bug, because no matter what I tried to do the marquee selection was always pasted as a smaller audio fragment and not the entire audio region.

    Better report it to @WaveMachineLabs!

  • theconnactictheconnactic

    And yes, I always separate the marked region before copying and pasting.

    I gave up on that a long time ago. Small things that should have been fixed, are never important enough to get to the top of the pile. :'(
