Selecting part of a file from Browsers
I'm pretty sure the answer to this is no, but I'm frequently proved wrong ...
Work flow: Dailogue editing (drama) I have all location sound in an open (Workspace) Browser Search for altenate takes Find the cue I need but I only need 5 sec from a 3 min take. Is there any way to import just the 5 sec into a session and not the whole 2 min?

Re: Selecting part of a file from Browsers
Yes, buy Nuendo 5. Seriously though, no, and it's a PITA. It's a funny thing Workspace Browser, it looks comprehensive and powerful at a glance but the more I forced myself to use it the less powerful I found it, maybe just me... I'm no Nuendo booster - I have a lot of personal funds invested in Avid/Digi kit and would like it to remain competitive but their lack of impetus in addressing incredibly longstanding user requests seems almost like wilful contrariness - a clip editor, clip based gain, clip based eq, 24hr timeline, built in auto-conforming and re-conforming, batch digitising/re-digitising from WAVs/9-pin, bins or at least folders in the region list, region groups retaining automation between sessions, automation pass filling system, option to have live fades and so on and so on. I know some of those are architecturally way more difficult than others but give us a bone!

Re: Selecting part of a file from Browsers
Snapper looks like a possible.
Didn't know Soundminer would let you take part of a file into PT?

Re: Selecting part of a file from Browsers
I use Soundminer for this and it works like a charm. Create a database with all my production dialog, select the alt take I want and spot directly to my PT timeline. With or without handles. I make it sound simple and it really is.
Cheers Nick

Re: Selecting part of a file from Browsers
I keep getting tempted by Soundminer .... and then think "well do I actually NEED to spend more of my daughter's tuition fees? Surely the next version of PT will bring it up to par ...?"
