Copy and Relink Copies items currently selected
in the Project browser to a chosen location, and re-
links the session to the copies instead of the origi-
nals. Use this to easily move files from a Transfer
to a Performance volume. This command is also
available in Catalogs to copy items and relink the
current Catalog to the copies.
Duplicate Selected Creates a duplicate of the se-
lected items in the same location.
Lock Selected Locks all selected items. Any files
already locked remain so. Locking a folder locks
all files and sub-folders it contains.
Unlock Selected Unlocks the selected items.
Delete Selected Deletes any selected item. In the
Workspace, Project, and Volume browsers, delet-
ing an item deletes it from the disk. In Catalogs,
you are asked whether you want to clear the items
from the Catalog (leaving your disks unchanged)
or delete the files referenced by the Catalog items.
Unmount Lets you unmount any online volume.
Available in the Workspace browser only.
Auto-Preview Enables or disables automatic pre-
view of files. When this option is enabled, select-
ing a file in the browser starts preview. The Pre-
view button updates to show that
Auto-Preview is
enabled. Additionally, the Preview button updates
to show an Auto-Preview icon.
Loop Preview Previews the selected file by loop-
ing playback of the file. If multiple files are se-
lected, only the first selected file previews. When
Loop Preview mode is enabled, the Preview button
updates to show a Loop Preview Mode icon.
Spacebar Toggles File Preview Enables or dis-
ables the Spacebar for starting and stopping pre-
view. When this option is disabled, use the Pre-
view button to start and stop preview. In this mode,
the spacebar starts and stops session playback.
This lets you play back the session and, with the
Audio Files Conform to Session Tempo option en-
abled, preview the selected audio file in time with
the session.
Audio Files Conform to Session Tempo Con-
forms all tick-based audio files with Elastic Audio
analysis, as well as REX and ACID files, to the
session tempo. This option lets you play back the
session and simultaneously preview the selected
files in time with the session. This option is only
available when a session is open. For more infor-
mation, see “Conforming Preview to the Session
Tempo” on page 312.
When the
Audio Files Conform to Session Tempo
option is enabled, Pro Tools analyzes un-analyzed
files on preview or import. Audio files that have
been analyzed as tick-based can then be previewed
at the session tempo and conform to the session
tempo on import.
When the
Audio Files Conform to Session Tempo
option is disabled, any tick-based audio files with
Elastic Audio analysis, and REX and ACID files
preview and import at their native tempo.
While Pro Tools is running, always use the
Unmount command in the Workspace
browser menu to unmount the volume, or quit
Pro Tools and then unmount the
volume.
When a browser is front-most, Control+P
(Windows) or Command+P (Mac) starts and
stops preview. Also, the Esc key stops pre-
view.
