Set both faders to 0dB

6.Verify that the Source and Destination volume faders are set to 0 dB and click OK. The drum hit is mixed equally with the spoken passage.

Both waveforms are combined

Preview the file and notice that, unlike pasting, mixing does not change the length of the file.

Using undo and redo

Sound Forge encourages experimentation by allowing you to easily undo/redo edit operations, even prior to your last save operation.

•You can undo any edit operation by choosing Undo from the Edit menu.

•You can redo any undone edit operation by choosing Redo from the Edit menu.

Important: The ability to undo past save is available only in the full version of Sound Forge, and is disabled by default. To enable this functionality, choose Preferences from the Options menu, click the File tab, and select the Allow Undo past Save check box. When this option is enabled, Sound Forge will retain your undo/redo history until you close the file or exit Sound Forge.
