System information
Item Description
Enable looping on
events by default
When this check box is selected, the Loop event switch will be
enabled for new events.
When this switch is enabled, events will repeat if you drag the end of
an event past the end of the media file.
Preserve pitch when
stretching audio events
When this check box is selected, the pitch of an audio event is
preserved when you hold Ctrl and drag the end of the event to
change its duration. When the check box is cleared, audio events'
pitch will increase when you make an event shorter and will decrease
when you make an event longer.
If you change this setting during an editing session, the new
setting will affect only media that you add to the timeline after
changing the setting. To change the behavior for existing events
on the timeline, use the Time stretch / pitch shift controls on
the Audio Event tab of the Event Properties dialog.
For more information, see "Editing Event Properties" on page 180 and
"Adjusting an Event's Length" on page 158.
Cut, copy, and delete
grouped events
When this check box is selected, cutting, copying, or deleting an
event will affect all events in the same group.
For more information, see "Cutting, copying, and pasting events" on
page 142 and "Grouping Events" on page 173.
Do not quantize to
frames for audio-only
edits
When this check box is selected, edits to audio events (such as event
moves, trims, and ASR times) are not quantized to frame boundaries
even if Quantize to Frames is enabled.
For more information, see "Moving events" on page 137, "Adjusting
an Event's Length" on page 158, "Event Envelopes" on page 166, and
"Quantize to Frames" on page 142.
Collapse loop region
when no time selection
is present
When this check box is selected, the loop region is reset when no data
is selected. If the check box is cleared, the loop region will retain the
last selection.
