Ardour offers many ways to <dfn>control playback</dfn> of your session, including the transport bar, key bindings and remote controls. You can also use markers to define locations or ranges within the session and rapidly move around between them.

|
|
If you synchronize Ardour with other devices then some or all of these control methods may be unavailable—depending on the synchronization protocol, Ardour may respond only to commands sent from its master device(s).

The <dfn>Transport and Times Bar</dfn> at the top of the window is made of:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>the Transport Controls</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>the Clocks</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>3 status indicators:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><dfn>Solo</dfn>: Blinks when one or more tracks are being soloed, see <a href="/mixing/muting-and-soloing/">Muting and Soloing</a>. Clicking this button disables any active explicit and implicit solo on all tracks and busses.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><dfn>Audition</dfn>: Blinks when using the import dialog to audition material.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><dfn>Feedback</dfn>: Blinks when Ardour detects a <dfn>feedback loop</dfn>, which happens when the output of an audio signal chain is plugged back to its input. This is probably not wanted and can be dangerous for the hardware and the listener.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>A global Meter, showing the level of the Master Output, see <a href="/introducing-ardour/meters/">Metering in Ardour</a></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>the Mode Selector, allowing to switch between Editor and Mixer views, or edit the Preferences.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
