Hi all,<br>
<br>
A few nights back I recorded quite a long segment (4 hours or so) of
audio in SoundForge. I imported the extremely large wave file onto
a track in Reaper, and went through it, editing out the parts I
didn't want and splitting certain parts as separate items on the
track.<br>
<br>
When I had completed my editing, I was left with a file that was
just over 2 hours, instead of 4, and a track in Reaper with 32 items
on it. I went through the track, applying fades to each item as
required.<br>
<br>
What I now wish to do is somewhat mix these items; I have the
fade-ins and fade-outs set, but because each bit of audio is a
separate item, naturally, one item ends with a fade out, and another
begins with a fade in. What I want is to either nudge, or cut and
paste, the items around on the track so that they overlap each
other. However, Reaper seems to do mixing, or crossfading of its
own whenever you paste an item onto a track. As I've already set
the fades for each item, I obviously don't want Reaper to mix them
for me.<br>
<br>
Is there any way of disabling this functionality? If not, is there
any other way of simply overlapping items on a track? Item 1, for
example, has a 5 second fade out, and Item 2 has a 5 second fade
in. I wish to simply paste item 2 5 seconds before the end of Item
1 and let the fades do their thing and let the audio overlap nicely.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
