Position Bar
The position bar has a handle you can grab with your mouse and drag:
rightward to move to a later time in the project.
leftward to move to an earlier time
.
The position bar’s handle shows where you are in the project. The black area to either
side of the handle shows the portion of the project currently displayed in the playlist.
The Playlist
The project playlist shows you what’s on a project’s tracks, and is therefore central to all
track editing operations. It shows you a left-to-right list of all of the phrases to be
played back in a project. As a project plays, the displayed phrases move from right to
left, with each phrase playing as it crosses the timeline.
Timeline
The timeline shows your current position in a project. It’s a graphic
representation of the time shown in the current time location display
(Page 126).The timeline represents
now
—some people call it the
“Now line.”
The timeline also plays a part in track phrase editing (Chapter 19).
When a phrase is touching the timeline, it can be selected for editing.
Tracks Display
The tracks display shows two things:
the tracks in the current project
the phrases on the tracks
Each track in the tracks display is a list of the phrases
presented from left to right in the order in which they’ll
play.
The name of the currently selected track is shown above the tracks display, and the
name of the phrase on the track that’s touching the timeline is shown next to it.
