one of the cool new features in tracktion waveform 11 Pro is the arranger track
I've used it several times in my projects already and it's really helped
to save some time and in this tracktion waveform tutorial I'm going to show you
how it can save you time too I'm Zane welcome to simple green tech where I do
weekly audio tech tips tutorials and reviews to help you conquer the tech and
unleash your creativity now let's jump into waveform so first let's talk about
what the arranger track does basically it allows you to move copy swap and
replace entire sections of your song now let's look at some of the ways it can
help you and the first way is by copying an entire section and adding it
somewhere else in your project so say it's this verse and you want to copy
that to the end of your project so what we'll need to do is add an arranger clip
and to do that you can just drag this red plus sign down into the arranger
track like this let go and you have a new arranger clip so you want to resize
it so it's the same length of the section that you want I use markers to
map out my songs to begin with so this kind of helps in this situation but if
you don't map it out like this just make sure the arranger clip covers the entire
section of the song that you want to copy so another thing we can do here is
we can rename this clip if we want just double click and then give it a name now
I want to copy this to the end of my song and you notice when you hover over
the clip you can see the two arrows here and your pointer turns into two arrows
as well so when you see that just click and drag to wherever you want to put
this so I'm going to drag it there let go and it gives us a couple of
selections here I want to copy it you can see we've copied everything from
the verse section to the end of our song now what if we wanted to copy this in
the middle of a song will we need to move everything out of the way first
no just drag the arrows to wherever you want to copy it let go click copy and
you can see that it's pushed everything over to each side and it's moved all of
our verse into the middle of our song here if you're unsure of the flow of
your song this can really help you to try out different ways now let's look at
moving the section and this is something I actually did recently and it saved me
a lot of time so for this we do the same thing we make our arranger clip and then
we drag it wherever we want say we want it right here
let go and this time we're gonna click move and you can see it's moved it from
the beginning over here into this section here and that's everything that
was in that section it didn't leave a big hole in our song everything's nicely
tucked together and we have our verse in the new location that we wanted and
there's still another way we can use the arranger track in waveform 11 what if we
wanted to swap out two sections say I wanted verse 1 to be verse 2 and verse 2
to be verse 1 let's create another clip by dragging the red plus sign and we'll
make it the same size as verse 2 and then this time we're going to drag this
clip right on top of the other one then let go and it gives you a couple of
options replace or swap and for this we want to swap so now it's swapped out our
verses and it took a split second to do that and now we'll just quickly look at
the other option which was replacing so we'll just drag that there let go click
replace and now we have verse 2 where verse 1 was and verse 2 the original one
is still in the same place we just replaced it over here as you can see
this is a very easy-to-use and powerful tool that can save you a lot of time for
testing out different variations in your project if you want to see more tracktion
