Editing the Video track
When the Video track is selected in the Project Structure
list, the event display lists the video events on the track,
with the following parameters:
Editing the Marker track
Marker events have the following parameters:
When the Marker track is selected, you can insert markers
by selecting “Marker” or “Cycle Marker” from the Add
pop-up menu and clicking the Add button. Regular mark-
ers will be added at the current project cursor position
while cycle markers will be added between the current left
and right locator positions.
Editing the Tempo track
When the Tempo track is selected in the Project Structure
list, the event display shows the events on the Tempo
track, with the following parameters:
You can add new Tempo events by clicking the Add button.
This creates a jump-type event with the value 120 bpm at
the project cursor position. Make sure that there is no other
tempo event at the current cursor position.
Editing Time Signatures
When “Signature track” is selected in the Project Struc-
ture list, the event display shows the Time Signature
events in the project:
You can add new Time Signature events by clicking the
Add button. This creates a 4/4 event, at the beginning of
the bar closest to the project cursor position. Make sure
that there is no other time signature event at the current
cursor position.
Deleting Events
The procedure for deleting Events is the same for all dif-
ferent track types:
1. Click on an event (or a part) in the Event display to se-
lect it.
2. Select Delete from the Edit menu or press [Delete] or
[Backspace].
Column Description
Name The name of the video clip that the event refers to.
Start The start position of the event. Editing this value is the
same as moving the event.
End The end position of the event. Editing this value is the
same as resizing the event, and will automatically change
the Length value as well.
Length The length of the event. Editing this value is the same as
resizing the event, and will automatically change the End
value as well.
Offset This determines “where in the video clip” the event starts.
Note that the event cannot start before the start of the
clip, or end after the end of the clip. Thus, if the event al-
ready plays the whole video clip, the Offset cannot be
adjusted at all.
Column Description
Name The name of the marker. This can be edited for all mar-
kers except the left and right locator.
Start The position of “regular” markers or the start position of
cycle markers.
End The end positions of cycle markers. Editing this value is
the same as resizing the cycle marker, and will automati-
cally change the Length value as well.
Length The length of cycle markers. Editing this value is the same
as resizing the marker, and will automatically change the
End value as well.
ID The number of the marker. For regular (non-cycle) mar-
kers, this corresponds to the key commands used for
navigating to the markers. For example, if a marker has
ID 3, pressing [Shift]+[3] on the computer keyboard will
move the song position to that marker. By editing these
values, you can assign the most important markers to key
commands.
Note that you cannot edit the “L” and “R” marker IDs (left
and right locator) or assign IDs 1 and 2 to markers (since
these are reserved for the locators).
Parameter Description
Position The position of the Tempo event. You cannot move the
first event on the Tempo track.
Tempo The tempo value of the event.
Type This indicates whether the tempo should jump to the
value of the event (“Jump” type) or whether it should
change gradually from the previous Tempo event, creat-
ing a ramp (“Ramp” type). See “Editing the tempo curve”
on page 397.
Parameter Description
Position The position of the event. Note that you cannot move the
first Time Signature event.
Signature The value (time signature) of the event.
!
Note that you cannot delete the first Tempo event or
the first Time Signature event.
