After smoothing edits with Beat Detective, sync points (corresponding to the material’s start point) are automatically created for the conformed clips. This allows you to later conform the clips to a different tempo map or groove template, or use different Conform settings. However, sync points are only created as they are needed: If gaps between clips are created during Clip Conform, Fill Gaps in Edit Smoothing mode will trim clips to fill the gap and a sync point will be created at each clip’s original start point. If there is no gap between clips, no sync point will be created by Edit Smoothing.
