Editing clips without creating new clips

[dimebagslash]

Is it possible when using the slice tool to simply slice the main clip without creating a new smaller clip?

Im currently editing some drums and taking out silence on the toms for instance. when i make a slice it creates a new clip. The reasons this is a problem are:
a) it creates and endless list of clips ie "floor tom_1,....floor tom 60"
b) when i try to trim the clip, if i extend it it reveals a loop of the clip rather than revealing more of the original clip.

hope this makes sense!

a) Turn of "Show/Auto-Created in the bin
b) Select the Standard-Trim Tool not the Loop-Trim-Tool
