Solved - Split a clip and then select the right side?

[JonnyHeyhey]

Hi guys I've been trying to google for answers to this one..

How do you split a clip and then have the clips to the right side selected inside of the left side?

Like I find myself having to select the right side of the splitted clip each time I split..is there an easier way to choose the clip on the right side instead the left?

Selection after single split

Thank you thank you...

I'd love to see this feature on PRV MIDI notes as well.

I did request it in the Feedback forum.

Hi Scook I noticed from your link that there is also an option 'when splitting clips in groups, create new groups' . Does this mean that say I highlight every track and then perform a split all of the split sections of the tracks can be moved together should i wish to do so?

And also what are 'auto crossfade comps'? Many thanks

This is how "big" auto crossfades should be:

I was wondering what the association with auto crossfades had to splitting clips - is it to face in/out where the actual split occurred? And do you suggest a 25ms cross fade?

Thanks

No, it's not face in/out - splitting & crossfading does the following (assuming a 5ms crossfade):

• Splits the clips at the split point (creating two exact copies of the clip, but slip-edited at the split point - i.e. the left clip's end is now at the split point, and the right clip's start is now at the split point).
• Slip edits the right of the  left clip by 5ms, and adds a fade out of 5ms.
• Slip edits the left of the right clip by 5ms, and adds a fade in of 5ms.

I'd recommend using the default 5ms as this works pretty well, but it's really down to taste.

Thanks. I presume the auto crossfade only works for audio clips?
