User Guide

Whenever you open a file in Sound Forge XP, a backup copy is created so
that the original file is not affected until you elect to save your work.
When you open a file as read-only or direct, Sound Forge XP will not
create a backup copy of the file, which makes opening files quicker and
uses less disk space.
AUTO PLAY
When checked, a file selected in the window will automatically begin playback
without opening it in Sound Forge XP.
PLAY
Auditions the sound file without opening it in Sound Forge XP. If playing a file
from a slow network or CD-ROM, some skipping might occur. This feature is
only available for WAV files.
