Muting Timeline Tracks (Audio Playback)
Select this function from the Audio Playback column shortcut
menu to switch the playback of one or all Timeline Tracks off or
on. It is the same as activating or deactivating playback directly in
the Audio Playback column of a Timeline Track (by clicking the
Loudspeaker icon).
Audio Scrubbing - Digital or Analog
Audio Scrubbing” in non-linear editing systems corresponds to what you can do with any professional
tape recorder: playback or rewind the tape slowly or quickly to find a certain audio location. In Avid Liq-
uid you move the Playline via the clips to be played back (in the Timeline) or you move the mouse pointer
of the Video Inlay of the Clip Viewer, Source Viewer or Master Viewer.
Press the
SCROLL key on your keyboard once to activate analog audio scrubbing. Next to the Audio Tool
icon in the taskbar an A or D indicates the scrubbing mode. Press
SCROLL again to deactivate this mode.
Avid Liquid offers you two types of audio scrubbing that depend on the audio material and your per-
sonal preference:
Analog Scrubbing -
Analog scrubbing sounds similar to what you do on a tape recorder.
Digital Scrubbing -
In the case of digital scrubbing, individual frames are played back in a loop.
Go to Audio Settings to change the digital scrub parameters ( page 878).
To toggle between scrubbing modes
use the shortcut menu of the Audio Tool icon on the taskbar (right-
click). Select your preference, and don’t forget to choose the Tr ac k s you need to monitor (see the follow-
ing section).
Toggle analog/digital scrubbing; “D” indicates enabled digital scrubbing
