The AudioBase Menu

Pressing the AudioBase key brings up the following menu:
search
Opens the Search
Submenu (see be-
low), used for find-
ing specific types of
Clip Record in the
database.

More About Paste

Pasting a clip is exactly the same as "borrowing" it in the Import Menu. This means that the clip in your project after
pasting actually uses a Master Recording found in another Project (the one shown on the Current Clip Record dis-
play). If you prefer this clip to be independent type Blue-paste (hold down Blue while pressing paste), and a new
Master Recording will be created in your project. This is the same as "keeping" in the Import menu.
If the Clip Record you are auditioning has a different sample rate from that of your current Project, it will play at the
same rate as this Project. This means its pitch and duration are different from the original. A warning to this effect
appears on the screen. Use the Wave Menu, Varispeed Submenu, to correct the sample rate.

More About Audition

While Audition is on, only the Current Record can be heard. The other clips on the screen do not move, and are
placed there just to show you their layout.
To regain control of the normal transport, turn Audition OFF. This will cause the Clip Record to disappear while you
relocate the Project in the normal way. Turning Audition ON again will start playing the current Clip Record from its
Head.
While Audition is on, the Jump Keys can be used to jump to point. If you have placed a sync point in the clip before
publishing, it will also be in the Clip Record (see Grab Menu - Trim Sync - for information about the Sync Point).
This is an easy way of storing useful sync points in your sound libraries.
To hear a different Clip Record, use the + and - keys or the Jogger Wheel to scroll the list, then turn Audition Off and
On again.
While Audition is on, the Timecode on the video screen displays the elapsed play time of the Current Record, but the
Project Timecode position does not change. Audition uses the normal system Preroll.
If you Audition a Clip Record with a different sample rate from your Project, it will play at the Project sample rate.
This means its pitch and duration are different from the original.
