+ There are two main uses for the Clips browser in the Editor window: +

+ +
    +
  1. Reusing existing clips
    2. +
  2. Creating new clips from content in the timeline
    3. +
+ +

Reusing existing clips

+ +

+ You have two options how to reuse a clip in the Editor. +

+ +
    +
  1. + Add to an existing track. Dragging and dropping a clip from the browser + on an existing track will add this clip to a location on the timeline + where you released the mouse button, snapping options apply. Audio clips + can only be placed on audio tracks, MIDI clips can only be placed on MIDI + tracks. Additionally, placing a single-channel (mono) clip + on a multi-channel track will create a clip where only one channel + is filled with the content of the original clip, the rest of the channels will be silent. +
    2. +
  2. + Create a new track. Dragging and dropping a clip below the bottom track + will create a new track from the clip and name it after the clip's file name. + Ardour will make a few judgements based on clip properties: the track will + contain as many channels as the audio file has. And for a MIDI clip, Ardour + will automatically add the "preview" virtual instrument of choice + to the processor box. +
    3. +
+ +

Creating new clips

+ +

+ You can create new clips for further reuse in the Editor window. Please see + the Managing Custom Clips page + for more detail. +
