The Audio Window
188
Fine Movement: The graphic display in the Audio win-
dow is optimized for quick and simple organization of the
audio files and regions. This involves displaying as many
things as possible simultaneously in a window. The finest
resolution for positioning the start point, end point and
Anchor, is therefore limited to units of 256 samples. This
is usually sufficient.
However, sometimes you need to make precise adjust-
ments down to the individual sample words. Drum loops
are a good example. The Sample Edit window is better
suited to these situations. To open the Sample Edit win-
dow for a region, double-click on that region.
Protecting the Region Parameters: Regions can be
“locked”, to protect against accidentally altering the start
and end points, or the Anchor position. The small lock
symbol next to every region can be opened and closed by
clicking it. If it is locked, you can play the region, but you
cannot edit it.
A protected region can still be deleted.
Renaming Audio Files and Regions: To rename audio
files and regions in the Audio window, just double-click
the name in the audio list. A text input box appears where
you can type in a new name.
Before renaming audio files the following warning ap-
pears:
Keep in mind other songs may use the same file! Do you
still want to rename the file?
You should check whether the audio file that you want to
rename is used by another song. If it is, don’t rename the
file, otherwise it will not be found or played by the other
song.
MAGIX midi studio generation 6 helps you in these situ-
ations:
– MAGIX midi studio generation 6 alters the name of an
audio file in all currently opened songs which use this
file.
– MAGIX midi studio generation 6 automatically assigns
the new name to any SDII stereo file which is
connected to the renamed file, and is stored on the
same storage location, on the same drive (and has the
same name).
You can rename regions whenever you like.
Providing the regions have the same names as their audio
files, any renaming of the audio files is automatically car-
ried over to their associated regions.
