# Deleting Audio in the Soundboard Editor

Soundboard's editor can easily delete unwanted sections of your audio.

Easily edited fades are automatically added to deleted sections of audio to smooth transitions. For more on fades, see Using Fades in the Soundboard Editor

To Delete a portion of audio:

1. Click on the arrow button in the audio slot to open the popup menu and select Edit.
2. Click and drag to select the portion of the audio to be deleted.

3. Go to the Edit menu and select Delete,...or press the Delete key on your keyboard.

   The highlighted portion of audio will be removed and fades added to the remaining audio.

A dotted line will indicate where the audio was deleted.

Drag the fade markers back and forth to increase or decrease the length of the fade.

4. To view the deleted portion of audio click on the disclosure triangle on top of the waveform. The deleted audio will be displayed in gray to show that is has been deleted, but is still there should you ever want it back.
5. Use the crop markers below to adjust how much audio is deleted.

6. To undo the edit, click on the disclosure triangle on top of the waveform, mouseover the center of the deleted portion of audio, and click on the restore audio arrow.

The deleted portion will be replaced and the fades removed.

7. Click on OK to save changes.

Note: Edits in the Soundboard editor do not affect your original audio file.

NOTE: Since the Soundboard editor is completely lossless, to undo any changes, simply open the file in the editor once more, click on the disclosure triangle to display the deleted audio, click on the restore audio arrow, and click on OK.
