Moving Events

 

You can move events horizontally along the timeline by dragging them with the Event tool Sound Forge Pro b eventtool Moving Events.

Moving an event past the end of the current file inserts time into the data window. You must remove any unwanted silence when you are finished editing the file.

When dragging events vertically across channels, you are limited to the number of channels in the current file. You cannot drag an event past the top or bottom channel in a data window to create more channels in the file.

Events can cross channel boundaries, but overlapping events must lie on the same channels. Sound Forge automatically splits or merges channels as you move events.

Sound Forge Pro channelsplit2 Moving Events

Crossfaded events before channel split.

The channels in both events are split when the first event is moved to channels 2 and 3 because overlapping events must lie on the same channels.

Sound Forge Pro tip Moving EventsYou can also Ctrl+drag events to other data windows or to the workspace to create new data windows.
