Click the button to load the current counter
location – even on the fly during playback.
Command/Ctrl-click the button to load the
beginning or end of the sequence into the start
time or end time, respectively.
Control/Win-click the button to load the beginning
or end of the Remembered Times (previously
retrieved from a selection with the Remembered
Times command)
into the start time or end time,
respectively.
The selection bar shortcuts
There are two shortcuts for loading the current
counter location into the Selection start and end
times. By default, they are assigned to the F5 and F6
keys on your computer keyboard. You can change
these key assignments if you like. You can also
program these key commands to respond to any
MIDI device, so that you can actually load counter
times from an external MIDI device. See chapter 9,
“Commands” (page 95) for details.
The “Remember Times” command
The Remember Times command (control-R),
allows you to save any time range selection, so that
you can load it into the Selection Information
window later on. You can also load remembered
times into the Memory Bar and the Auto-Record
Bar. For complete information, see “The
‘Remember Times’ command” on page 534.
Load Selection
The Load Selection button provides additional
shortcuts. Click the Load Selection button once to
Set Selection to Remembered Times, or double-
click the button to Set Selection to Chunk Bounds.
Making a selection in an edit window
You can make a time range selection in an edit
window to set the Selection times. For example,
you could click one of the Memory Cycle markers
in the MIDI Editor to select the Memory Cycle
range. The selection is automatically loaded into
the Selection Information window.
Preroll and Postroll
These text fields set the Preroll and Postroll for Link
Playback to Memory mode. See “Preroll and
Postroll” on page 199.
Smart Selections
A check box is provided as a convenient shortcut to
enable or disable Smart Selections. For more
information, see “Smart Selections” on page 534.
TRACK INSPECTOR
The Track Inspector window shows track settings
such as color, input, output, play-enable status,
record-enable status, Pitch mode, Stretch mode,
and so on.
Figure 37-11: The Track Inspector window.
As with other Information windows, the Track
Inspector may be added to the Info Bar using
Preferences > Information Bar. This allows you to
add controls for track play-enable, record-enable,
take, automation, and so on in windows that did
not previously have them available, such as the
QuickScribe Editor.
