Zooming

The Zooming feature lets you view the file up close or further away for more flexible and accurate editing. Zooming can be done using the toolbar icons or the drop down menu under View. Zooming options are as follows:

•

Zoom In. This gives you a magnified view of the file.

•

Zoom Out. Pans out to gives you an overview of the file.

•

Zoom to Selection. When you select a portion of a track, you can zoom in on that selection with this feature. Once this is done, you can use the other zoom features to give you more viewing options.

•

Zoom In On Scale. This changes the amplitude scale to the right by increasing the amount of detail (the range) that is shown. This is helpful if you have a quiet piece of music and need to view more detail for editing.

•

Zoom Out On Scale. This changes the amplitude scale by decreasing the amount of detail shown. You cannot Zoom Out On Scale beyond +/-30,000.

Note that the red bar below the time scale indicates what portion of the track is appearing in the window. Use the two arrows to the right of this bar (or click and drag on the red bar) to move through the track.
