Re: Smooth Cutting/Pasting

What does Repair do? What it does is to repair up to 128 selected samples. It does this by interpolating a waveform from the immediately neighbouring waveforms - and a fine job of it, it does too. As Trebor points out it does an excellent job of smoothing cuts/joins - and it works well on short dur...
