the previous file's last Cue Marker (if applicable) or beginning. File Skip functions will work while a
clip is playing and while it is paused.
If the last file played was an individual track from a mono WAV take, skipping will occur between that
take's tracks rather than the default behavior of skipping between takes. When the first or final track is
navigated away from, file skipping will again occur between takes.
