Here you can view the most important information about the current project. Included is
beat/BPM, recording, editing, and snap/grid settings as well as the "Auto Save" mode.
Sample rate (Hz): The project's sample rate is used here. The sample rate for the project
may also be changed and the audio and MIDI objects adjusted to the modified sample
rate.
Volume dampening: Set level decreases in 6-dB stages. Volume reduction may be
necessary for virtual projects if you are working with an internal precision of 16 bits.
When working with an internal accuracy of a 32-bit float, 0 dB editing is definitely possible,
since internal overmodulation cannot occur. Simply set the sum levels with the master
mixer faders to 0 dB.
Note: Please bear in mind that Samplitude sinks the volume of wave projects by the value
set in the virtual project. You can quickly toggle between virtual projects and wave projects
without the volume level changing. If, on the other hand, a wave project is the only project
opened, then it will always be played at maximum volume.
Project start time: Specify the project's starting time here.
Project length: The project length is displayed here in bars and beats.
Recording/Editing: Diverse presets for recording and editing:
Lock recorded Objects: Protects against unintentional moving of recorded objects.
Group objects after multi-record: Groups objects from a multi-track recording which
belong to one another.
Detailed information on destructive wave editing mode and non-destructive wave-editing
can be found in "Working techniques in the project window -> Samplitude as a wave
editor (view page 101)".
