Transient marker context menu
The transient marker context menu appears when you right-click a transient marker. The command
you choose from this menu acts on the marker that you right-click, and most commands also act on
any markers that are selected. The following table describes each command.
Bright yellow Selected marker.
Grey; only the head of the marker is
visible
Disabled marker.
Arrow Stretched marker. Any given transient can only be stretched or
shrunk to 25-400% of original length.
A small arrow indicates in which direction the audio has been
stretched.
Note: An important difference between quantizing MIDI and
audio is that two or more audio transients can never collapse on
top of each other like MIDI notes can.
