Scrubbing Sync Points
While viewing an audio waveform can be a good
way to set a sync point, a waveform display may
not always reveal the desired spot in the audio
material. By scrubbing while moving the sync
point over an audio waveform, you can listen
for the exact location to place the sync point.
To scrub while dragging the sync point:
1 If you want the sync point to snap to the cur-
rent Grid value when you finish scrubbing, set
the Edit mode to Grid (see “Edit Modes” on
page 445).
2 Select the Scrubber tool.
3 Drag the sync point to a new location. The
sync point scrubs the audio as you move it.
You can also move the location of a sync
point by clicking and dragging it. See “Drag-
ging Sync Points” on page 729.
