Chapter 11 Sample Editor 403
The top line of the Sample Edit window keeps you informed about the functions
progress.
The selected area of the audio file is replaced by the edited audio material.
Options
Selecting Edit > Undo (or Command-Z) allows you to compare the edit with the
original, at any time. You can continue to work in the Arrange window, as the Undo
function of the Sample Edit window operates independently of the rest of the
program.
You can repeat the edit with other Regions or audio files, without needing to close
and reopen the chosen Factory window. The function is only performed on the
selected material.
You can also use the pull-down menu at the top edge of the window to switch
directly between the individual functions of every Digital Factory process. The two
sides of the Factory menu (separated by a horizontal line) divide the Digital Factory
into “Machines” (large float window) and “Functions” (small float window).
If you are playing your song (containing MIDI and audio data) while editing audio
material, owners of slower computers may experience slightly “jerky playback of the
audio material. MIDI playback will continue to function correctly. The editing time also
increases slightly while the song is playing.

The Time Machine allows you to radically alter the time structure of audio files,
including time compression/expansion, and pitch transposition. When changing the

effect.
Overview of the Time and Pitch Machine features:
Time compression or expansion without transposition,
Pitch transposition with or without altering the length and tempo,
Correction or alteration of the timbre (sonic character),
