amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I'm trying to snap a region to the start of the bar, I have the snap set to division, the as I move the floating window shows that I am indeed dropping to the start of bar i.e. first division start. Unfortunately the locators show the region to not be at 1 but rather a bit off . So instead of being on: 49 1 1 1 the locator shows the start of the region at: 48 4 4 223 close enough to be musical but still, don't get why I can't snap right on 1 See pic below , you all will have to trust me that I did move the region to start of bar or I will have to figure out how to attach a movie file See: the region in question is the bass which is highlighted. thanks for the feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Is snapping set to absolute value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 yep. which I assume to mean to next nearest value on the time grid in this case division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 btw, I just thought of something. These regions in questions were created by the Strip Silence function ( CTRL-X) perhaps the regions "start slot" is slightly off due to this process.

Eric Cardenas Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That's probably it. Set the anchor point to the beginning of the region to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 ah, lucky guess, I vaguely remember seeing a video on that, any handy reference link ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Open the region in the Audio File Editor. Move the anchor to the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 yep that was it, the anchor point was off from the start of the region which is based on the zero crossing point. Splitting based on silence is a cool feature but the gains in productivity are lost due to the correcting of the anchor point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiracam Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 hmmm, after some thought instead of correcting the anchor point to match the zero crossing point maybe the region should be trimmed to the right to match the anchor point. It seems that the anchor point is closer to the attack of the note, perhaps that's why it was implemented that way in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
