The track waveform views have names visible in them that scroll during playback. These names,
however, are not the name of the source audio clip, but are region or event names instead. This user
name could be edited in the Event Editor, but the source clip name (the raw audio file from which the
region came) could not be seen. This presented problems when burning ISO 9660 data backup CDR s,
as it was difficult to ascertain which files were which.
With the addition of the FTP server in V1.5, the situation could only get worse, so an enhancement was
added:
Now, a read-only display is available in the audio Event Editor that shows the true clip name.

The toolbar now shows locate points and their names, which are also draggable

It is now possible to see the names and locations of a number of time-based points on the ruler above
track data on the Track and Automation screens. These points can now be dragged to their desired
locations with the mouse relative to the grid, so it is easy to get them where you want them without
having to enter actual numbers with the keypad.
The points shown in the ruler are Locate, punch, loop, and sync. They are shown here:
To see how this works, press Capture on the surface to grab the current playhead location. Store it as a
locate point by pressing Locate and then Enter on the keypad.
You can now see a Locate point on the ruler. The point made for this example was the first made in the
project, so it is labeled 0 — New Locate .
This point can be dragged with the mouse (click on the point itself and drag it around the timeline to
try this), and if it is renamed using either the LCD s or the VGA s Transport screen, the new name
shows up as well.
NOTE: Holding down the Control button and clicking in the ruler now adjusts the Sync point.

Browser lists now support multiple selection

When using any of the SX-1 s browser fields, multiple selection is now supported. This means that you
no longer have to import audio files or Takes one at a time, and that you also no longer have to select
each file for an ISO 9660 CD ROM individually.
To see this functionality in action, navigate to the Clip Browser on the Track screen.
