Hi all,
Here are the latest updates related to editing.
* I've fixed the problem Kevin reported,
which appears to be good enough.
Tests pass.
(I thought of a cleaner solution, but
it can wait.)
* I've rewritten the man page section on
editing, which was incorrect.
* I've fixed some alternative commands
for setting edit points, so now you
have two choices:
- 'set_edit_points' (sep) to start playback at the current
position at pick all three by hitting the P key
successively
- set them individually by positioning the playback head
and using the commands
+ set_play_start_mark (smsm)
+ set_rec_start_mark (srsm)
+ set_rec_end_mark (srem)
You can adjust the mark positions using the 'modify_mark' command.
(I note that currently the volume fades out on transport
stop, so the head is positioned maybe half-second later..
I think Nama should leave the head at the exact position
the stop command is issued.)
After setting the edit points, use
'new_edit' (ned) to create the edit,
Then you can use various other commands that apply
to the current edit:
'preview_edit_in' (pei) to hear the audio with clip removed,
'preview_edit_out'(peo) to hear the removed audio,
'record_edit' (red) to record the replacement audio (multiple times if
you like)
'play_edit' (ped) to hear the edited audio
'merge_edits' (med) to freeze the edits as a new track version
'list_edits' (led) to list edits for the current track
'end_edit_mode' (eem) to return to normal playback
As you can see from the number of commands (and the time it
has taken for me to provide this ability) it is a fairly
complicated process. Hopefully it will be sufficiently
easy to use.
I see I've neglected to implement a few functions:
'delete_edit' (ded)
'mute_edit'
'unmute_edit'
'unmerge_edits'
Another thing I have yet to do is to *hide the edit tracks*.
So you'll see some extra tracks in your show_tracks
display. I'll hide them after we get a few more bugs
shaken out.
Please try again and let me know how it goes!
Joel
