how does swing affect audio?

[r0cker]

hello, i've only just started using swing it has opened up a whole new world to me! anyway i wondered how swing affects audio. i presume it will only move seperate clips as opposed to altering the sounds within an audio clip.
if anyone could let me know i would be very apreciative
cheers

If you mean swing quantize, it doesn't. Quantize effects midi data. You can move audio clips to or by a set amount by using the snap command, but there is nothing like swing there.

It must also quantize the start times of audio events, as you guessed. Only thing that makes any sense. Haven't tried it myself.
