Creating Memory Locations
Memory Locations can be created in different
ways, based on the type of Memory Location.

available number is assigned to it (1–200). This
number is used in recalling the Memory Loca-

Timeline Selection.
3 If the Markers Ruler is not displayed, select
Display > Ruler View Shows > Markers.

the location where you want to place the
Marker. To place a Marker at the beginning of a
region, select the region with the Grabber. Click
the Marker Well button to the left of the Markers
Ruler (or press Enter on the numeric keypad).
