Working in projects

The "a" key sets the zoom-size on the whole object

Using POS1 you can set the position line on the beginning of the project.

The del key deletes marker or objects, if they have been previously selected.

The "t" key can be used to cut a selected object at the position of the position line. At all cuts,
soft cross fades are automatically created, avoiding this means crackles at the cuts.

The "m" key sets a marker at the actual position

You can import directly WAV- and MP3 files from the Windows Explorer into the MAGIX
Music Editor 3 projects using Drag & Drop.

It is not necessary to change the position of the objects in the sequence (this would only be
possible with the second track). It is much easier, to reposition the track markers. This will also
rearrange the corresponding objects in the track. The easiest solution is to rearrange the
sequence of the songs in the CD track list

Quick zoom by click on the time ruler and drag the mouse down for zoom in /up for zoom out
Performance
If errors occur during playback, you have the following options:

Increase the playback buffer in the "Playback parameters" dialog ("P" key).

Zoom out to project full view ("A")

Deactivate the "Autoscroll" function in the "Playback parameters" dialog ("P").

Do not use DirectX plug-ins; they will increase the CPU load.

In Windows NT, the playback performance of the hard disk system is particularly good if the
corresponding files are played for the first time. So if a project is not played perfectly, save it,
close it, and then open the project again. Now the NT file system's performance is optimum
again.
Recording/Reproduction
The recording window can be called using the shortcut "R". Then you can start recording with "A" and
stop the recording with "S".
The playback can be started and stopped using the space bar. When stopped, the position line will return
to the initial position. When playback has been stopped using the, key, the cursor will remain at the last
position.
