The right mouse button
A common question is æwhy donÆt you add an option to edit with the right mouse
button?Æ. This is already in there û just select the æUse old right mouse menuÆ
checkbox in the options.
The colour scheme
DonÆt like the colour scheme? This too is configurable û just select the second
tab in the options box. All changes are saved when you quit the program.
The strip silence function
This is a very useful function, overlooked by many users (check the edit menu).
Its purpose is to remove silence between samples, and place a splice point between
them. This allows easy mapping of samples extracted from CDs, amongst other applications.
Quick tool selection
For quick selection of tools, simply press 1-9 on the keyboard. These are mapped
in the order they appear in the toolbar.
Saving slice settings
To save and restore your slice settings, just click the save point and load point
items in the file menu. Note that the sensitivity setting is not yet saved, so
donÆt panic if the points donÆt appear immediately!
Moving the L +R locators
To change the L + R locators quickly, hold down Control + press the Left or Right
Mouse button.
