Transport Functions
To open the Transport bar select Window> Open Trans-
port. (NOTE: A Transport bar will already be open if you in
the first screen set of the default song.) The Transport bar
includes all buttons for playback, recording, pause, fast
forward and rewind, as well as the locator and a field for
selecting the tempo. The Transport bar is a floating win-
dow; i. e., it is always on top and will never be covered by
another window.
Click on the flip menu switch and select larger to increase
the size of the Transport window. You may also choose en-
able Legend. which will provide descriptive labels for each
of the Transport bar functions. This can be helpful while
you are becoming familiar with them. Once you know
these functions, you can disable the legend in order to
save space on the screen.
We recommend that you move away from using the
mouse to operate the basic transport functions as soon as
possible. If you get used to the keyboard shortcuts right
from the beginning, at least for the most commonly used
commands, you can increase your work speed drastically.
The illustration shows the default keys of the computer
keyboard that correspond to the Transport field buttons.
Please note that the keyboard layout can be completely de-
fined by the user. If you are using the supplied “Power-
Keys” keyboard layout, Stop is 0, Play is enter, and Solo is
s.
The Position Slider helps indicating and editing the cur-
rent song position.
