Hiding Auto-Created Clips

You can hide clips that were automatically created during the course of editing.

To hide auto-created clips:

From the Clip List menu, deselect Show > Auto-Created. With this option deselected, only user-defined clips appear in the Clip List.

User-defined clips include:

Whole-file clips

Clips created during recording

Imported clips

Renamed clips

Clips created as a result of AudioSuite processing

New clips created with the Clip > Capture command or the Edit > Separate Clip commands

Clips created by trimming whole-file audio clips

When auto-created clips are hidden, Pro Tools warns you if the number of auto-created clips exceeds a certain threshold, and gives you the option of deleting them. If you choose to delete them, all auto-created clips are deleted at the same time.

To ensure that you keep any specific auto-created clips, rename them. When you name a clip, it is promoted from being an auto-created clip to a user-defined clip (see Renaming Clips).
