Snap point (Hotspot)
Hotspot
The current play cursor position is turned into a reference point for the snap
function. Instead of the object’s beginning, the hot spot is now used when the
object is snapped to the grid. Stroked vertical lines illustrate hot spots, and hot
spots may stand outside an object (in front of or behind the object). This
function is very useful for a case where the portion of an object to be
synchronized does not line up with its beginning.
Delete hotspot
The set hotspot is removed, the object snaps again to the object start when
the object grid is switched on.
Object color / name
Object foreground color
After selecting the desired color, all selected objects in the project will have the
same foreground color.
Object background color
The background color selected in the color grid is applied to all objects.
Object name
The selected new name is applied to all selected objects.
Tempo and beat recognition
This menu entry opens the Tempo and beat recognition (view page 253, view
page 252). Tempo and beat recognition is a powerful tool for determining the
BPMs
(beats per minute) and the time position of quarter note beats of any
song. This is important, for example, when a track on an audio CD has been
imported into Samplitude 11.5 Producer and other sounds like drum loops,
effects, or synthesizer voices are to be mixed in.
