    Personally, just blank them out….no beep.

    I did remember someone showing me a while ago. Something about using the audio tool to generate calibration tone and then using the capture tool to record it. Just can’t do it for some reason.

    Open your Audio Tool. Click the PH button and click “Create Tone Media”.

    Set your tone level, frequency, length, number of tracks, target bin and drive.

    Hit OK.

    Avid will create tone according to what you enter and put in in your bin. Just load that into your source monitor and cut it into place.

    I generally like to use a 750Hz tone as it’s more of a “booop” than an annoying “beep”. If you’re censoring the Osbournes, then the high-pitched variant can get annoying.

    But, I agree with the other poster above that sometimes it’s better to just lift it out and leave silence.

    Hehe. More annoying than the Osbournes? 😉
