Using The Lock Tool - Propellerhead ReCycle Operation Manual

Using the Lock Tool

The Lock tool is essentially the opposite of the Hide tool. If you lock a slice, by
clicking on its marker with the Lock tool, it will stay even if you drag the Sensitiv-
ity slider all the way to zero.
If a slice is locked...
...it will stay even if you set Sensitivity to zero.
Locking several Slices at the same time
If you have several slices selected (see below) they will all get locked when you
click on one of them.
Clicking on one of the selected slices... ...locks all of them.
Unlocking Slices
To unlock a locked Slice, simply click on it again with the Lock tool.
When do I use the Lock tool?
If you got a good set of slices by just using the Sensitivity slider, but discover
that in one or two places you hear two sounds when you click on a slice, then it
is time to bring out the Lock tool.
1. Find the place where you hear two sounds when auditioning.
2. Make a mental note of the current slider setting.
3. Set the sensitivity slider to a higher value to get a slice between the
two sounds.
4. Audition to make sure you got what you wanted.
5. Lock the new slice.
6. Drag the sensitivity slider to the original setting.
