Using the mouse
When you move the mouse over the waveform area, the pointer turns into a
speaker icon. When you click with the speaker tool on a Slice (a section of
waveform between two Slice markers), it plays back. Press [Space] to stop
(even if you don’t, playback automatically stops at the end of the Slice). If
you click and drag left or right you can audition consecutive slices. (Dragging
to the left will not play slices “backwards” - it only reverses the order that
the slices are played back in.)

The “hot-spot” (the part of the pointer that you aim with) is indi-
cated by a cross.

dition each one.
