SF & Spec Layers Webinar - and more.... -Sound Forge - PC

Subject:SF & Spec Layers Webinar - and more.... Posted by: UKharrie Date:6/12/2013 11:18:36 AM Two Q's really - I watched the webinar for these advanced products and Hey! aren't they good? Wanting to play it again I pressed Download (to view off line) and there it is, playing (in Quicktime)...but now I come back to watch from the start I can't find it . . where does Sony put the downloaded Webinar? - it never asked....and not under Downloads/Documents//Music either... Q2 in SF Audio Studio ( v10) I can import and save a stereo-pair, but other engineers use Audacity and that appears to offer multiple track ie all in the one frame, ( I know you can open multiple frames, but they're treated as independent data.). Foolishly I started the Show me How on the Basics and was thoroughly confused - what's with "Regions" and why does it insist I open a Video? My Audio files are usually from a portable recorder using SDHC cards. However, I've been known to open a small audio clip from Movie Studio' so I can maybe "add something" -or- maybe an SFX effect. In this case it would be useful to have the audio tracks (for the video) - and the audio recorder tracks so they can be played (and saved) together. This would be 4-tracks in all. However, I expecting this would be a combination Stereo recording, so any later work is not possible without going to the original tracks . . . or can I save a multiple track project? What's odd is that you could do this multi-tracking in Movie Studio - and I use "Volume" regularly. When saved as a .vf file, it keeps all the tracks as they were and I can go back as often as needed - BUT I do like to work in SF - somehow it is "tidier" and it came with Movie Studio, as part of the Suite version. Maybe it's because I don't include the Video, I find it better able to concentrate on the Audio, using SF. Message last edited on6/12/2013 11:59:16 AM byUKharrie.

If I'm understanding you correctly, Sound Forge is not a multitrack editor per se; it can just work with multiple-track files like surround sound files. If you're looking for true editing in the multitrack realm, stick with Movie Studio or ACID if you have any version of that app.
