Disabling and Re-Enabling Clips in the Timeline
Sometimes there’s one or more audio clips in the Timeline that you don’t want to play along with the rest of the edited sequence, but you don’t want to remove from the Timeline either, in case you change your mind later. For this reason, it’s possible to disable clips, effectively turning them off without removing them. Previous versions of Fairlight referred to this operation as Mute clip.
Disabled clips appear dimmed in the Timeline. They don’t play back, they’re not rendered, and they’re not output to video. However, their position is preserved in the Timeline, so you can always re-enable them at a later time if you change your mind and decide you want to use them.
Disabled clips appear in the Timeline in gray.
— Right-click part of the selection and choose Enable Clip from the contextual menu.
— Choose Clip > Enable Clip.
— Press D.
Deleting Audio Clips and Regions
You can delete any clips or clip regions that are selected, in either Pointer or Range modes,
by pressing the Delete key, or by right-clicking a clip and choosing Delete Selected from the contextual menu. By default in the Fairlight page, deleting anything leaves a gap. Under the Edit Menu >
Ripple Delete you can ripple delete selected clips changing the placement of all of the clips that follow.
