Selecting the processing mode for audio tail data

Some effects, such as Reverb or Simple Delay, create a “tail” at the end of the selected audio. This tail consists of the echo or reverb created by the effect that lasts beyond the end of the selection. When you select a portion of a file and apply the effect using the Plug-In Chainer, you can select one of three buttons to determine how Sound Forge processes the audio tail:

•Select the Ignore Tail Data button ( ) to ignore the tail. The effect ends abruptly at the end of the selection.

•Select the Mix Tail Data button ( ) to mix the tail into the adjacent material. This is the most natural- sounding option.

•Select the Insert Tail Data button () to insert the audio tail. All audio to the right of the tail moves over to accommodate the extra audio.

Press Ctrl + T to toggle through the three audio tail data processing modes.

Note: The Insert Tail Data and Mix Tail Data commands may not function when using third-party reverb plug-ins.You can use the Insert Silence command to make room for the tails or apply the reverb in a new data window that has room for the tails and then mix the processed audio back into your source file.
