Playing the Current Selection

To play back the current selection, click on the loudspeaker switch. You can also

perform this function with the Play/Stop Selection key command.

Playback from a Certain Position

If you double-click at any position on the time axis, the audio file will play back from

this point, to the end of the current selection. If you double-click on a point beyond the

selected area, the audio file will play until its endpoint is reached.

Checking the Position of the Anchor

The Play/Stop Region to Anchor and Play/Stop Region from Anchor key commands allow

you to check the Region Anchor position, by listening to the parts just before and after

the Anchor.

Cycle Playback Mode

You’ll find the Cycle button on the left-hand side of the Sample Edit window, just above

the Loudspeaker button. If you turn this on, the currently selected audio section will

cycle continually when playback is engaged.

You can change the start and end points of the selected area while monitoring it in

cycle playback mode. This makes it easy to edit the start and end points of (say) a drum

loop, until it loops perfectly. When you’re satisfied, you can turn the selection into a

new Region with the Edit > Selection > Region function.

Playing Regions

In general, you can only play currently selected parts of files from within the Sample

Edit window. There is, however, a key command that toggles between playback of the

whole Region and stop—regardless of the selection. This key command is called Start/

Stop Region.

When you open the Sample Editor by double-clicking on a Region, it will automatically

be selected in the Sample Editor. The same thing happens when you click on a Region,

while the Sample Editor is in Link mode.

Scrubbing

Click-hold on the time axis and move the mouse. The recording should play back,

following the speed and position of the mouse.
