Apple 2 manual Editing Single Audio Files in File Editor Project View

Page 44

To open a file (or the file a clip refers to) in the File Editor tab, do one of the following:

mClick the file. When the file (or clip that refers to a file) is selected in the Timeline, it appears in the File Editor tab below the Timeline.

mDrag a file from the Browser tab, Search tab, Favorites tab, or Bin tab into the File Editor or Timeline. The file’s waveform appears in the File Editor tab below the Timeline.

Important: Remember that when you work in the File Editor tab, you don’t need to worry about saving audio files associated with a multitrack project because all the individual audio files in the multitrack project are automatically saved.

To open a file (or the file a clip refers to) as an independent audio file project:

mSelect the clip, then choose Clip > Replace with Independent Audio File Project. The selected clip is replaced with a new independent audio file project.

Editing Single Audio Files in File Editor Project View

If you are not working in a multitrack project and want to edit single audio files, you can edit in the File Editor project view. A single audio file, opened from the Browser, Search, or Favorites tab appears in the File Editor project view. You may have several audio files open simultaneously; when you do, each file has its own File Editor tab.

If you double-click a file, it appears in the full-screen File Editor.

When you edit or apply an edit or effect to a file, Soundtrack Pro automatically converts the file from its original file format to an audio file project. This conversion allows the edits to be applied to the file as nondestructive actions. By default, Soundtrack Pro chooses the audio file project format so that it can save your actions nondestructively.

Unlike when editing files associated with a multitrack project, you must save the edits you apply to an audio file project or other file type.

The Apple II is a defining product in the history of personal computing, first introduced in 1977 by Apple Computer, Inc. Designed by Steve Wozniak, the Apple II was one of the first highly successful mass-produced microcomputer products and played a significant role in bringing personal computers into homes and schools.

One of the Apple II's standout features was its color graphics capability. It was one of the first personal computers to provide color output, thanks to its built-in video interface. The initial model supported a resolution of 280x192 pixels with a palette of 6 colors, which allowed for vibrant visuals that set it apart from contemporaries like the monochrome Altair 8800.

The Apple II was notable for its open architecture. This design allowed users to expand the computer's capabilities easily through a series of expansion slots. Users could add floppy disk drives, additional memory, and various peripheral devices, making the system highly adaptable to individual needs. This encouraged a thriving ecosystem of third-party hardware and software, which contributed to its popularity.

Another significant feature was its use of the 6502 microprocessor. This 8-bit CPU was not only affordable but also powerful for its time, allowing the Apple II to run various applications efficiently. Along with a built-in keyboard and an innovative plastic case that housed its components, the design was user-friendly and appealing.

The Apple II also introduced the concept of “bootable software” through the use of floppy disks. The disk operating system (DOS) allowed users to store and run multiple programs without having to reload software manually, providing a level of convenience that had not been widely available before. Key software like VisiCalc, the first spreadsheet program, helped boost sales, showcasing the Apple II's utility in business and education environments.

The computer was also well-known for its early adoption of BASIC programming language. Apple provided an operating system that supported Applesoft BASIC, which enabled users, including students, to write their programs, further fostering a community of developers.

In summary, the Apple II's color graphics, open architecture, powerful 6502 processor, innovative use of floppy disks, and support for BASIC programming made it a revolutionary product in its time. Its legacy laid the groundwork for future personal computers and established Apple as a leader in the burgeoning tech industry. The Apple II remains an iconic symbol of the early personal computing era, reflecting a generation's transition into a digitally connected world.
