19 – 404 The Audio Montage
Using the Shuttle function
As described in the section “Using the Jog/Shuttle function” on page 143,
the Shuttle function can be viewed as playing back with a continuous con-
trol for tape speed and direction. This works in the same way in the Audio
Montage as in the Wave windows:
1. Activate the Jog/Shuttle button on the Transport bar (or press [F10]).
A vertical line is displayed in the middle of the Audio Montage window and the pointer takes
on the shape of a speaker.
2. Click and hold the mouse button to the left or right of the vertical line.
Clicking to the left of the line will play back the audio backwards and clicking to the right will
play the audio forwards. The playback speed is determined by the distance from the line to the
pointer, so that the further away from the line you move the pointer, the faster the playback.
• The playback speed is indicated in the info line.
“1.00” is normal playback speed. Negative values indicate reverse playback.
3. Release the mouse button to stop playback.
Remember to deactivate the Jog/Shuttle button on the Transport bar when
finished (by clicking the button, pressing [F10] or using Stop).
• You can also control Shuttle via a MIDI pitch bend wheel.
See “Using a MIDI pitch bend wheel to control Shuttle” on page 144.
Using the Jog function
As described in the section “Using the Jog/Shuttle function” on page 143,
the Jog function can be viewed as dragging the audio past a “playback
point”, much like dragging a reel-to-reel tape past the playback head. This
is done in a different way than in the Wave window:
1. Click the Jog/Shuttle button on the Transport bar or press [F10].
A vertical line appears in the middle of the Audio Montage window. This is the “playback
point”. Furthermore, the area above the ruler turns purple.
2. Point in the purple area above the ruler.
