Range mode (safe mode)
Right mouse button: Displays context sensitive popup menu.
Left mouse button: Selecting ranges and moving ranges ("Shift"). Objects or
automation curves cannot be changed by accident (i.e. "Safe mode").
Create ranges
In range mode, ranges are sketched by clicking and dragging the mouse pointer while
holding the mouse button.
The range mode is a "safe" mode, since objects or curves cannot be moved
accidentally.
Play cursor
Single clicks place the play cursor anywhere in the track.
Zoom
Double clicks outside of a selected range (or no range) zoom out. Double clicks inside
a selected range zoom in.
Quick switch to other mouse modes
Using the "." (period key) temporarily switches to the object mode to allow objects to
be moved.
Using the "–" (minus key) temporarily switches to curve mode to allow automation
curve events to be moved and manipulated.
Curve mode
Right mouse button: Context menu
Left mouse button: Offers a range of functions. I.e.:
Volume and panorama rubber band
When you click on the track near an object, you can, by pulling the mouse to the left
or right, spread a rectangle by holding down the mouse key. This will select all volume
and panorama points contained in the selection box.
Volume and panorama gradients for the whole track
Using the panorama and volume curves, volume and stereo panorama graduations
can be graphically recorded. For this purpose sizing handles which are moved are
created on the curve.
