What three tools are combined via the SmartTool? - ✔✔Trimmer, Selector, and Grabber
What is the difference between "adding" and "copying" a track when importing audio into Pro
Tools? - ✔✔Adding = The Session you are importing the audio into will reference the audio
from the original location.
With "Add", we reduce the amount of audio that is needed to store in the Audio Files folder,
thereby helping to not waste disk space.
Copying=The Session you are importing the audio into will copy the audio from the original
location and ask you where you would like to store the copies (always copy into Audio Files
folder of the Session). Choosing "Copy" makes sure the audio in the Session moves with the
Session folder.
(Only use Add if specified. Otherwise always choose Copy)
