General Functions

Zoom Out
Zooms out one step, centering on the position cursor.
Zoom Full
Zooms out so that the whole clip is visible in the editor.
Zoom to Selection
Zooms in so that the current selection fills the editor display.
Zoom to Selection (Horiz.)
Zooms in horizontally so that the current selection fills the editor display.
Zoom to Event
Zooms in so that the editor shows the section of the clip corresponding to the
edited audio event. This is not available if you have opened the Sample Editor
from the Pool (in which case the whole clip is opened for editing, not an
event).
Zoom In/Out Vertically
This is the same as using the vertical zoom slider (see above).
Undo/Redo Zoom
These options allow you to undo/redo the last zoom operation.
• The current zoom setting is shown in the info line, as a “samples per screen
pixel” value.
NOTE
You can zoom in horizontally to a scale of less than one sample per pixel! This
is required for drawing with the Draw tool.
• If you have zoomed in to one sample per pixel or less, the appearance of the
samples depends on the “Interpolate Audio Images” option in the Preferences
dialog (Event Display–Audio page).
If the option is deactivated, single sample values are drawn as “steps”. If the
option is activated, they are interpolated to a “curve” form.

While you can use the regular play commands to play back audio when the Sample
Editor is open, it is often useful to listen to the edited material only.
Clicking the Audition icon on the toolbar plays back the edited audio, according to
the following rules:
• If you have made a selection, this selection will be played back.
