Trimming clips

Whether you want to remove extra silence in your recording, shorten a music or effects clip, or manually adjust word boundaries, the trim tool makes fine-tuned adjustments easy.

  1. Hover your mouse over the edge of any clip in the Timeline. Make sure you do not have the Hand tool selected.
  2. From here you can click and drag to extend or shorten your audio clip.
