Digital Performer's comprehensive track comping features offer limitless comping possibilities.
Build a comp with just a few clicks
Digital Performer allows you to record multiple takes into a track, and then choose one take in the track for playback and editing. Choose "Show Takes" to view all takes side by side. With the Take Tool, you can easily make split points across all takes and then simply click the desired section from each take to quickly create a composite (comp) take consisting of the sections selected from each take. In the resulting comp take, crossfades can be applied, along with all standard operations for editing audio regions in a DP track.
"Comping the comp"
When you've perfected your comp track, you can use it as yet another take itself, which allows you to "comp the comp" by incorporating any portion of an existing comp take into a new comp take. Each comp appears side by side with all the other takes for a track.
Move easily between tracks and takes
The "Turn All Takes Into Tracks" and "Absorb Tracks" commands allow you to explode takes into tracks, or collapse tracks into takes, respectively — although in many respects, takes behave just like tracks with their own play/mute buttons, output assignments, automation settings and so on. You can freely move tracks between the two models (takes and tracks), which is especially helpful for working with projects created in earlier versions of DP, where takes may have been spread across multiple tracks. Now you can instantly convert them to takes to begin using the new comping features right away.
