Generate Markers Dialog

This dialog allows you to generate markers at regular intervals in a specified time range. You can fill a selected time range, the region between the cursor position and the end of the audio, or specify a fixed number of markers to be generated.

  • To open the Generate Markers dialog, open the Markers window and select Functions > Generate Markers.

Naming

Allows you to set up a naming scheme.

Depending on whether you have selected a single marker or a start/end marker, you can specify the naming scheme for a single marker or one naming scheme for the start marker and one for the end marker.

If you select Custom, the Rename Markers dialog opens, where you can specify a custom naming scheme for batch renaming markers.
