Video Transcript

"Hello, this is Kyle with Expert Village and I'm gonna be talking about some tips for Sony Acid Pro. OK real quick, we're gonna run back up here. The selection tool, it's real handy for just grabbing a lot and you can drag them down or you can right click, copy, and go over here and edit, paste. Let's use this eraser, this is the next tool. So you know if you just wanted to take a beat out here and there you can use this eraser tool, and so I'm gonna erase everything right here. Now one way you can really use the erase tool is to simply, whatever you have this set on, like I have it on the rulers, then it will erase that ruler mark. So let's say I want to erase that, and now knowing that it's gonna listen to everything, I'm just gonna erase the things that are underneath here. I'm just gonna try out a little combination of things. We're going to go to this beat, I'm going to erase these so we'll go back to our original fill, and then we're, I'm want to try just one of these three, just to see how it sounds. It's the great thing about Acid is you can always redo, so it's a great way, I click to the beginning, let me hit the space bar and let's see how this sounds. Little bit too much there at the end so I hit that, but this is the basic use of the erase tool. It's really handy, great little tool."
