Notes:

If you adjust a clip's properties and do not click the Save button (), the new properties are saved in your ACID project only (the media file is not modified).

If you adjust a clip's properties and click the Save button (), the modified properties are embedded in the media file if possible (you will be prompted to save to a different file if necessary).

When you load a project, the clip properties saved in the ACID project are displayed first. If clip properties have been edited since the

project was saved or if the clip was modified in an external editor, you can click the Reload button to load the properties saved in the file.

Managing a track’s clips

Each track in your ACID project can contain multiple, distinct media files, called clips. Use the Clip Pool tab in the Track Properties window to add, remove, and preview clips. For more information, see Using clips with tracks on page 101.

Adjusting general clip properties

The General tab displays information about the file associated with a track and allows you to change the ACID type, apply pitch shifting to all events on the track that use the same clip, and adjust time-stretching for Beatmapped clips.
