The Play Parameter window which appears after selecting this menu option is designed to quickly enter
playback parameters. Below is an explanation of the options available in this window.

Sample Rate
The sample rate can be changed here as long as the soundcard supports the new rate (some soundcards
even support changing the rate while playing the sample!). This is especially useful to hear notes in a
sample range played in a different octave. When selecting half the sample rate the pitch should be the
same. It would be played one octave lower.
Device
To specify the driver of the sound card use this dialog box. This is necessary if playback takes place
through a single sound card device (non Multi-Card Mode). This is especially important if multiple output
devices are located in the computer.
AutoScroll
The ‘AutoScroll’ section will let you activate the AutoScroll feature. It is especially useful when working
with long disk files. The HD Wave project window will follow the play cursor during playback.
When working in ‘2’ or ‘3’ section display mode, the AutoScroll feature will cause the individual sections
to follow the play cursor as well. If you have zoomed into one of the sections, the play cursor will move
through the section faster resulting in more screen redraws.
There are two alternatives in auto scrolling.
The ‘Soft’
option performs a smooth scrolling of the whole waveform, the play cursor stays in the center of the
display. This mode needs a fast graphics board, because the complete screen is scrolled between the
marker steps.
The ‘Page’ option performs a page by page scrolling.
Please note, that the auto scrolling requires certain processing power based on your processor, graphic
card and the resolution of the display. For this reason you might encounter small interruptions in playing
the audio files. Should this occur simply disable the auto scroll feature or raise the buffer size (select
‘Setup’ menu and click on ‘System’
).
