I'd be happy if I could just "hide" a section of audio without needing to delete it. I'm often trying to shorten musical pieces and having a way to hide/unhide a section would be so much easier than relying on delete/undo.
Ah, I think that isn't possible. You would have to split the track and then use the smart clips feature.
Or you use a different tool like someone else mentioned.
So - lets say I'm taking a long piece of music and making something like a "radio edit".
I decide a chorus can go, maybe the another section, perhaps a repeated phrase here or there. But now it's too short so I want to put that chorus back in. Or change how much of the chorus was removed since I removed too much.
There isn't an easy way to undo that delete without ctrl+z'ing my way back through all my deletes. I want something like a "hide column" feature from spreadsheets where I can just skip over that section but not really delete it. And to have a marker so I can undo it and change it later.
Might be a niche request but it's something I need to do from time-to-time.
