+ The Region Propeties window +
+
+ +

+ The Region properties window brings information about the selected + regions, and allows to fine tune its sequencing. It is accessed through the + Region > Properties… menu, or by + right clicking the region, + Name_of_the_Region > Properties…. +

+

+ This window also allows to manually set the different values. +

FieldMeaningEditable
Name:The name of the region in the editorX
AuditionThis button allows to listen to the region and only the region, dry (with + no effects, regardless of the processors applied to the track). For MIDI, + the default MIDI synth, set in the Preferences, + is used to audition the region.
Position:Position in time of the left-hand side of the regionX
End:Position in time of the right-hand side of the regionX
Length:Duration of the region (=End−Position)X
Sync point (relative to region):Position in time of the Sync Point, relative + to the beginning of the region. No manual sync point means the sync point is + the beginning of the region (=Position), so will show as "0" in time + and 001|01|0000 in Bars:Beats notation.X
Sync point (absolute):Position in time of the Sync Point, relative + to the beginning of the session. No manual sync point means the sync point + is the beginning of the region, and will be equal to the Position.X
File start:Position in time of the beginning of the region relative to the source + file start. If the region has not been trimmed on the left, then the regions + start is the file start and this value is 0.
Source:Name of the source audio/MIDI file the region is exctracted from. + A region can be a part of or a whole audio/MIDI file, and multiple regions can + be based on the same source file. + X
Region gain:(Audio files only) Manual gain, in dB, applied constantly to the whole region, + regardless of the global track's gain, automation, etc…X
Peak amplitude:(Audio files only) Maximum level the signal reaches inside the region. + Expressed in dBFS (Full Scale), where 0 is the numeric maximum a signal can + reach.
+ +

+ All the fields maked as "editable" in the table above allow the user to manually + enter a value in the field, to manually set this value. +

+ +

+ Right-clicking on a field allow to switch between the + different clock modes. +

+ +

+ The context menu that pops up also allows the relevant fields (Position, End, + and both Sync points) to be set from the playhead location, which can be used to + e.g. trim a region to the playhead or place a sync point exactly on a beat. +
