With traditional DAWs, editing and processing are tied to individual tracks. If you want to add a different EQ, compressor, or effect to a specific section or your audio, you’ll need to create a new track - whether you need it or not. Sequoia speeds up the process and gives you complete control over even the smallest of details with Object-Based Editing.
In this tutorial, production specialist Ben Eshagpoor will show how you can go beyond working strictly with tracks and instead go deeper by working directly with objects in Sequoia. Objects are self-contained clips that process in real time, carrying their own fades, time-stretching, gain, pan, aux sends, and effects.
Sequoia’s Object-Based Editing lets you work faster, stay creative longer, and make smarter mix decisions regardless of the project you’re working on.
Learn how to edit nondestructively with precision and with zero compromise on audio quality or creativity.
