I couldn't really sum this one up in the title because I've never experienced this with any software I've ever used.
O.k. I've got 3 tracks recorded whole and split into parts that I want to re-position in time. They're 3 recordings of the same narrated vocal (yeah, I should have used takes instead of tracks, but I didn't know about that feature at the time). Essentially this is a vocal comp, but I need more free time, so to speak!
When I go to move one of those segmented parts forward in time, everything lined up with and following that segment moves accordingly. And when I mean everything, I'm not talking about that one track's audio, I mean ALL tracks move with it. It's like all those tracks are locked in time to the same start position (so they all remain lined up as I shift stuff forward), which is actually very cool for some situations now that I think about it, but what if I want to freely reposition my segments in time independent of the other tracks? Does this make sense? I drag my split audio segment forward and all other tracks move along with it. It's like they're all locked in time together. I want more free time! ;) Is there a setting I have to turn off? What do they call this?
this is really strange to me. I have locking turned off, if that is pertinent information.
thanks.
