Playback Shortcuts

In addition to the buttons on the transport bar, you can use shortcuts to control the playback.

Space

Starts or stops playback. This shortcut can even be used when the Audio Editor or the Audio Montage window is not the active window.

0 on numeric keypad

Stops playback. If the playback is stopped and you press this shortcut, the edit cursor moves either to the previous playback start marker or to the selection start (whichever is closer), until the start of the file is reached. This is identical to clicking Stop Playback on the transport bar. The shortcut is available even when the Audio Editor or the Audio Montage window is not the active window.

Enter

Starts playback. If pressed during playback, playback restarts from the previous start position. This is the same as clicking Start Playback from Edit Cursor on the transport bar.

Alt-Space

Starts playback from the mouse cursor position.

F6

Starts playback of the selected range, depending on the selected option in the Ranges section of the transport bar.

F7

Starts playback from the selected anchor, depending on the selected option in the Anchors section of the transport bar.

F8

Starts playback and stops it at the selected anchor, depending on the selected option in the Anchors section of the transport bar.
