ARCHOS box rock - Manual (Page 62)

At the top of the window a time value is displayed. This is the point in time within
the song at which the split point indicator is positioned.
(4)The locator
Another vertical bar represents the position locator. It moves along as the song
plays. In contrast to the split point indicator it has no triangles at the ends.
(5)The time bar
The time bar displays the current position within the song relative to the whole
song. The entire length of the time bar represents the song length. The length of
the solid part of the time bar represents the position and length of the displayed
part of the song.
(6) The scale mode
Directly above the F3 button the scale mode is displayed. The waveform can be
scaled either logarithmically or linearly. In logarithmic scale mode the letters "dB"
are displayed, in linear mode "%". Use F3 to switch between these modes. Linear
mode usually gives better optical hints with commercially recorded music. For
quiet recordings, especially of human speech, the logarithmic scale often is
preferable.
(7)The loop mode
Directly above the F2 button the loop mode icon is displayed. There are 4
different loop modes. Pressing F2 changes to the next loop mode.
Playback loops around the split point indicator. This mode is best used
when searching and zooming for the desired point at which to split the
recording.
Playback loops from the split point indicator to the end of the visible area.
This mode is best used when fine tuning the split indicator position at the
beginning of a recording.
Playback loops from the beginning of the visible area to the split point.
This mode is best used when fine tuning the split indicator position at the end
of a recording.
Playback doesn't loop, the borders of the visible area as well as the split
point indicator are ignored. This mode is best used when playing the song
outside of the borders of the displayed region.
(8)Perform the split
The icon directly above the F1 button indicates its function to execute the split.
When split positioning is complete open the save dialogue with F1.
