The Audio Track Editor in Logic Pro for Mac

The Audio Track Editor shows a close-up view of part of an audio track in the Tracks area, displaying the audio waveform of the regions on the track in a time grid.

In the Audio Track Editor, you can move and trim audio regions, split and join them, and edit them in other ways. You can scroll and zoom the Audio Track Editor, and zoom the amplitude of the waveforms in audio regions. Edits you make in the Audio Track Editor are non-destructive, so you can always return to your original recordings.

You can also quantize and edit the pitch of audio material in the Audio Track Editor using Flex Pitch. For more information, see Edit pitch and timing with Flex Pitch in Logic Pro.

You can also add audio effects to selected audio regions in the Audio Track Editor using selection-based processing. See Use selection-based processing to learn more.

When Enable Complete Features is selected in Logic Pro > Settings > Advanced, a new File button appears in the Editors pane. This is an advanced audio editor called the Audio File Editor. Edits made in the Audio File Editor are destructive, meaning that the original recording is permanently changed. The Audio File Editor has a different set of functions than the Audio Track Editor, allowing you to reverse and invert audio, remove DC offset, edit transients, and more. See Overview of the Logic Pro Audio File Editor interface to learn about the Audio File Editor.
