Search Tags
These tags are used by the Search feature in Soundtrack when you search for files
matching specific criteria.
 Genre pop-up menu: Displays choices for the musical genre of the file.
 Instrumentation list: Displays choices for the musical instrument or instrument
category recorded in the file. Selecting an instrument category in the left column
displays the list of instruments in that category in the right column.
File Info
This area of the Tags tab includes rows with Kind, Length, Date Modified, Sample Rate,
Channels, Tempo, and File Location information. This information is for viewing only,
and cannot be edited in the Tags tab.
Descriptors
Descriptors are complementary pairs of keywords describing the mood or character of
the music recorded in the file. Each pair of keywords has a row of buttons, allowing you
to choose either one keyword from the pair, or neither keyword.
Transients Tab
The Transients tab contains a large waveform display, with a Beat ruler and a horizontal
scroll bar. Markers indicate the position of transients in the file. Typically, transients
correspond to the peaks or most pronounced amplitude changes in a sound’s
waveform. The Transients tab includes controls for the beat division and sensitivity with
which Apple Loops Utility detects transients in the file. You can also listen to the file
using the playback controls to help determine where transients occur.
