Activity Forums VEGAS Pro remove loop region

    Hi,

    New to COW and Vegas. I’m using Vegas Pro 8.0 in an XP pro enviornment.

    I am still learning the basics, but I’ve been trying to do 2 simple things and I’m not finding the instructions how to, probably because I don’t yet know some of the proper terms.

    First, while trying to select parts or all of an event, I’m accidentally creating loop regions (a part of the event is highlighted above the timelines with a yellow in and out marker). How do I delete the markers, not the portion of the timeline.

    Second, for sync problems, I’m trying to move either the audio or video of an event left or right to sync the two together. I read in the help files that I should select either the audio or video (I first selected both, went to Edit, Group, Remove from)and then hit #1 or #3 to move the event, but nothing happens.

    How do I move the event one frame at a time to fine tune the sync?

    Thanks, John

    1: MWhen you have made a selection (colored segment) just place your curser outside the selection and click. Selection will go away. Does not matter that the little yellow triangles stay where they are. They will automatically go to any new selection that you make.
    2: Many ways. One: Click on ignore event grouping icon in toolbar. All grouping will temporarily go away until you unclick it. Two: Highlight (click on) either the video or audio (not both) and hit U (Ungroup) you can then move it independantly.
    3:Its easier to move smaller distances (ie 1 frame) by zooming in on the time line then use arrow keys.

    [john wallace] “then hit #1 or #3 to move the event”

    Make sure you’re using the numbers on the NUMERIC KEYPAD (not across the top of the keyboard) and that NUMLOCK is turned ON.
