Track Folding (Cubase only)
Here you can quickly show, hide or invert what is dis-
played in the Project window event display. This enables
you to fold in automation subtracks, for example.
Pool
This opens the audio Pool, which contains all clips (audio
and video) that belong to a project.
Markers
This opens the Marker window. Markers store positions to
facilitate quick navigation to important locations in a project.
Tempo Track
This menu item opens the Tempo Track Editor. For tempo
based tracks, the tempo can follow the tempo track (acti-
vated with the Master button on the Transport panel),
which may contain tempo changes.
Browser
This opens the Project Browser window which provides a
list-based representation of the project. This allows you to
view and edit all events on all tracks by using regular value
editing in a list.
Beat Calculator…
This opens the Beat Calculator window. The Beat Calcu-
lator is a tool for calculating the tempo of recorded audio
or MIDI material.
Set Timecode at Cursor
This allows you to set the project start position at the cur-
sor position. When synchronizing Cubase with external
devices, such as video tapes for instance, the start posi-
tion denotes which timecode frame on the external device
should correspond to the beginning of the project.
This can also be set in the Project Setup dialog. However,
if you know that a certain position in your project would
coincide with a certain timecode position in the external
device, using this menu item might be preferable. Move
the project cursor to the desired position, select “Set
Timecode at Cursor” and specify the corresponding time-
code position in the dialog that appears – the Start value
is adjusted accordingly.
Notepad
This opens a standard text notepad.
Project Setup…
This dialog contains general settings for a project. See the
dialog help for specifics.
Auto Fades Settings…
This opens the Auto Fades dialog, where you can specify
various fade options. Use the Help button in the dialog for
details.

track was folded in (its elements (subtracks) were hid-
den), it is now unfolded (all subtracks displayed) and vice
versa.

exact behavior of this function depends on the “Deep

tively.
