Transport

If this option is activated, you can use the Space on your keyboard to start/stop “local” playback of the selected file in the Sample Editor or the Pool.

When the Sample Editor is not open or when there is no audio file selected in the Pool, the Space still toggles the “global” project playback.

If this option is deactivated, the Space is used to start/stop playback of the project.

If this option is activated, all frame based display formats (“.fps” and “.dfps”) will also show subframes. There are 80 subframes per frame.

You can enter a timecode value on the Transport panel. If you press Shift-P, a specific timecode position is focused. Select one of the following options:

• Full Timecode

  Allows you to enter the timecode as a sequence of numbers. For example, entering 010203 results in 00:01:02:03.

• Starting at Hour Position

  Allows you to enter the timecode per entry field, starting with hours.

• Starting at Minute Position

  Allows you to enter the timecode per entry field, starting with minutes.

If you use any of the “Feet+Frames” display formats, you can activate this.

If this option is activated, time displays and rulers in Feet+Frames format will always start with 0’00 at the beginning of the project - regardless of any Start offset settings in the Project Setup dialog.

This is where you set the frame rate (the number of frames per second) for the Display format “User”. This frame rate will then be used in every ruler for which you select the User display format.

If this option is activated and you stop playback, the project cursor automatically returns to the position where recording or playback last started.

If this option is deactivated and you stop playback, the project cursor remains at the position where you stop playback.

If you click Stop again, the project cursor returns to the position where recording or playback last started.

You can use the winding functions during playback. If this option is activated, audio playback is stopped as soon as you click Rewind or Fast Forward on the Transport panel.

If this option is deactivated, audio playback will continue until you release Rewind or Fast Forward.

These options affect the fast forward/rewind speed.

• If Adjust to Zoom is activated, the wind speed will be adapted to the horizontal zoom factor.

  If you zoom in very close for detailed editing, you probably do not want to have a high fast forward/rewind speed. Because of this, the Speed Factor does not have any effect in this mode. The Fast Wind Factor still applies though.

• If Fixed is activated, the wind speed will always be the same regardless of the horizontal zoom factor.

• Use the Speed Factor option to set the wind speed. You can set a value between 2 and 50. The higher the value, the faster the wind speed will be.

  If Adjust to Zoom is activated, this has no effect.

• Use the Fast Wind Factor to set the wind speed multiple for fast winding.

  If you press Shift while fast forwarding or rewinding, the wind speed will increase. The increase in speed is a multiple of the Speed Factor. Meaning that if you set the Fast Wind Factor to 2, the wind speed will be twice as fast. If you set it to 4, the wind speed will be 4 times as fast, etc. You can set a value between 2 and 50.

Adjusts the width of the Project Cursor line.

If this option is activated, you can zoom in or out by clicking in the Ruler and dragging down or up.

If this option is activated, you can move the Project Cursor by clicking anywhere in an “empty” area of the Project window.
