Been getting more comfortable with audio files as opposed to just midi as they can be a great tool for any production (as many already know)
Currently working within Ableton suite 8 and I was wondering if it is possible (maybe not in this DAW but in other DAWS) to edit the waveform itself..
There is a reverb sound file that spans 16 bars, but I only want to use the first 4 bars for my production.. essentially what I want I can explain with a simple visual example
Original sound - ....ooooooooOOOOOOOOO000000000000000000OOOOOOOOoooooo.....
What I am trying to do - ....ooooOOOO0000OOOOoooo....
So essentially I want to go halfway through the waveform portion (After 2 bars) and I want to decrease the amplitude level gradually. The sample does this.. but over the course of 16 bars, whereas I want to crop the clip at 4 bars and manipulate the amplitude at certain sections (As of right now I can only find a control to manipulate the overall amplitude of the clip, not a sectional option).
If you are working with Ableton and you know how to do this, I would greatly appreciate some feedback (even if it's just a page number in the manual)
Or if you know you can do this in your DAW (or other DAWS) then I guess i'll take that step if I know its possible!
Thanks
