All language subtitles for 05. Elastic Wave Fairlight

All right guys.

So the Elastic Wave feature in Fairlight is really cool and it basically allows

us to speed up and slow down clips similar to the retime and controls with our

videos. And now by default,

Fairlight doesn't actually have a shortcut to enable Elastic Wave.

What you have to do is right click on the clip and select Elastic Wave.

But guess what? Your boy hooked it up. I made a shortcut for Elastic Wave.

It's the same shortcut as our retime controls for video, it's just Command R,

because within Fairlight Command R doesn't do anything.

But if we hit Command R on this clip,

we could see we have this elastic wave feature up here.

That's a huge shortcut to remember. Um,

that's exclusive to our colder creative keyboard shortcut layout. Um,

now if I go back to the edit tab and I perform that same shortcut on any

video clip, we know that that gives us our speed change controls over here. Um,

now within Fairlight we have that same option for our video,

which is just Command R Elastic Wave.

So I'm just gonna expand this track so you guys can get a better view of what's

going on here. So this is a sound of some seagulls.

Now, let's say that I wanted this section to slow down.

What I can do is hold command on my keyboard and just click anywhere on this

clip and we can see that we are presented with this line.

The waveform kind of disappeared there for a second.

I just have to zoom in and out. I don't know why that happened.

But holding command gives us this line and that's basically like a speed point.

And I can hold command again anywhere else.

And now I can play around with these speed points to manipulate the speed of the

sound. So if I click this one and drag it out,

we can see that we're prolonging this section here.

This speed point here stays in the same place.

So I'm moving this one and I am affecting the speed of the sound just like that.

So let's take a listen to what this sounds like.

So we can see it's slowed down a lot and it almost has like this like ugly

reverb kind of sound effect that happens when we do that.

But let's try to speed it up and see what happens. Now that sounds good.

We can even speed it up more.

So we can use these controls to speed up and slow down any parts of our audio

very quickly. We slow down that part.

We can add another segment here.

And this is just a great way for us to manipulate the speed of our sound.

So in some situations, you know,

you might find yourself a sound effect that you really like for a certain part

of your video,

but maybe it's too short or maybe it's too long and you want to speed it up,

condense it into a smaller range within your timeline.

The Elastic Wave option is a very quick and easy way to make those kind of

changes. Now, of course, when we're done, we can just select the clip,

hit command R, and we are back to our original view. So that's elastic Wave,

very powerful tool.

I definitely recommend that you implement this into your workflow.

Play around with it. It's really, really important.

But that's it for this video. I hope you guys enjoyed.

I'll see you in the next one.
