Displaying Clip Names, Clip
Times, and Other Data
Clip names and times can sometimes get in the
way of editing audio waveforms and MIDI data. In
these instances, you may want to disable their dis-
play. In other instances, such as arranging or spot-
ting Foley, displaying clip names and times is ex-
tremely useful.
To enable or disable the display of clip names in
playlists:
Select or deselect View > Clip > Name.
To display clip times:
From View > Clip, select one of the following
options:
No Time
Disables display of clip times.
Current Time
Displays start and end times for
clips.
Original Time Stamp
Displays the Original Time
Stamp for each clip. The Original Time Stamp is
the original timecode location for the clip when it
was first recorded or created.
User Time Stamp
Displays the User Time Stamp
for each clip. The User Time Stamp, which de-
faults to the Original Time Stamp, can be redefined
with the
Time Stamp command.
Displaying Clip Data on All Channels
For stereo and greater-than-stereo multichannel
tracks, clip data can be shown on all channels.
To enable or disable the display of clip data on all
channels:
Select or deselect View > Clip > Display on All
Channels
.
