The Selection Clocks

- The transport bar contains a set of 5 clocks that show the current - selection range and punch ranges. + The current selection range, as set with the Range Mode tool, + is displayed in these three clocks: start of the range, end of the range, and length.

- Clicking on the punch range clocks will locate to either the beginning or end of the punch range. - Similarly, clicking on the range clocks will locate to either the beginning - or end of the current selection. In this screen shot there is no current - selection range, so the selection clocks show an "off" state. + Clicking on the range clocks will locate to either the beginning or end of the punch range.

+ Right clicking on any of the clocks brings up a context menu + allowing to change the type of time display between the + 4 clock modes, and to copy the selected clock's time to the clipboard. +

Recording mode

+ +

+ The Rec button affects how the tracks behave when recording:

+
+
Non-Layered OFF (default)
+
Tracks in normal mode will record non-destructively — + new data is written to new files, and when overdubbing, new regions will be + layered on top of existing ones. This is the recommended mode for most workflows. +
+
Non-Layered ON
+
Tracks using non-layered mode will record non-destructively + — new data is written to new files, but when overdubbing, the existing + regions are trimmed so that there are no overlaps. This does not affect + the previously recorded audio data, and trimmed regions can be expanded + again at will. Non-layered mode can be very useful for spoken word material, + especially in combination with push/pull trimming. +
