The <dfn>Summary</dfn> is a global overview of the session, allowing for a good "bird's eye" view of where in time and tracks the work happens.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Each horizontal line represents a track in the session, with the colored bars being the audio and MIDI regions, colored as per their track's color setting.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Two yellow vertical lines show the position of the <em>Start</em> and <em>End</em> markers, defining the session's length. The red line shows the playhead's position.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The transparent white rectangle represents what's actually displayed in the Editor window, i.e. what part of the session is beign looked at on screen.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Summary also doubles as a navigator:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the arrows on the left allow to scroll the view horizontally, by 1 length of the veiw each time</li>
|
|
<li>the arrows on the right allow to scroll vertically, by 1 track each time</li>
|
|
<li>the white rectangle can be dragged anywhere on the session, moving the view accordingly</li>
|
|
<li>each border and corner of the white square can be resized, changing the view accordingly</li>
|
|
</ul>
