Whether you’re working with music files that consist of a single segment, or those that you’ve split into several segments, at times you’ll want to shorten (crop) a segment or extend the segment to add a bit of silence to the beginning or end of a track. It's easy to do this—you simply drag the beginning or end of a segment.
It’s risk-free, too. That’s because MixMeister uses non-destructive editing. No matter how much you edit a segment, you never really change the original music file, so you can always get back to it. There are other benefits, too: your onscreen editing goes much faster and your working files are much smaller. Remember, too, that you can use the "Undo" feature to undo almost anything you do to the Playlist and in the Timeline.
Note
If you want to crop or extend an Overlay segment, see Working
with Primary and Overlay tracks.
In the Timeline, point
to a segment line at the beginning or end of the Primary track segment
you want to crop (shorten).
Text appears that says Crop Or Extend Segment.
Drag the line to the point where you want to crop the segment, and then release the mouse button.
In the Timeline, point
to a segment line at the beginning or end of the Primary track segment
you want to extend (lengthen).
