Where Editing Takes Place

You'll edit tracks on the VS-2000's Home screen—see Chapter 8—or on the wave
display, described below. Each screen offers a different view of a project's audio.
The Wave Display
The wave display is a companion to the Home screen's playlist and can be opened
whenever the Home screen is visible.
Press STOP before opening or closing the wave display.
To open and close the wave display:
1. Press HOME.
2. Hold down SHIFT and press F5 (WAVE)—the wave display fills
3. To close the wave display, hold down SHIFT and press F5 (WAVE) again—the lower
The wave display provides a highly magnified view of a track's audio in which you can
often literally see the audio event you're looking for. The waveform in the display is the
track's audio interpreted in graph form. The graph's vertical axis represents volume, or
"amplitude." Its horizontal axis represents project time.

The track that's currently selected for editing remains selected as you scroll through—
and view—different tracks in the wave display. You can see the name of the currently
selected track in the top left corner of the display, a portion of the Home screen that's
still visible. The wave display itself tells you which track you're viewing there.
By combining different vertical and horizontal zoom settings, you can view the selected
track's audio with almost any degree of detail. You can also hold down SHIFT and press
HOME to toggle on and off a full-screen view of the wave display.
