Renumbering Bars; Memory Locations And Markers - DigiDesign Pro Tools Reference Manual

Renumbering Bars

You can use the Renumber Bars command to re-
number all bars in the session, effectively
changing the bar locations for all regions, meter
and tempo events while leaving their position
intact. In doing so, however, the SMPTE and
sample locations of the session data are not
changed.
To renumber bars:
Choose Event > Renumber Bars.
1
Specify the bar you want to renumber, along

with the new bar number, then click Renumber.

Properties of Memory Locations
When creating a new Memory Location (see
"Creating Memory Locations" on page 430) you
are prompted to define its Time Properties and
General Properties.
Memory Location dialog
Time Properties
Under Time Properties, a Memory Location can
be set to Marker, Selection, or None. This deter-
mines the type of Memory Location that is cre-
ated. Each of these three Memory Location
types can also save any combination of General
Properties.
Marker Recalls a Timeline location whose refer-
ence can be either Bar|Beat (tick-based) or Abso-
lute (sample-based). When recalling a Marker
Memory Location, the playback cursor moves to
the Marker's location and the start and end
times in the Transport window are also updated.
If the Timeline and Edit Selections are linked,
the edit cursor also moves to the Marker loca-
tion.
