Clips let you create and share recordings that students can play along with at their own pace. From a teacher’s point of view, they are especially useful for virtual duets: instead of trying to perform together live over an online lesson where latency can make timing difficult, you can record a playalong clip directly in the lesson and share it with your student. Your student can then play or record along with your clip, giving you a clear and accurate way to hear how they perform with your part. Clips are also helpful for saving short lesson examples, building group ensemble performances, and capturing practice recordings for review.

Looping and speed: click a saved region to play it on repeat. The volume icon on the far right of the clip has both volume and speed controls, so a passage can be slowed down for practice and worked back up to full speed.
The pen icon is the region editor — most people look for the pen rather than the words. Click the pen to open it, drag across the part of the clip you want, give the region a name and save it, then click the pen again to put the tool away.
