Project Window

The Project window is the “canvas” where you work on your projects. For multitrack
projects, the Timeline is where you arrange and edit audio clips. For audio file projects,
the Waveform Editor is where you edit audio files.

 Toolbar: Includes tools for common functions. You can customize which tools appear

in the Toolbar.

 Tabs: You can switch between any projects open in the Timeline or Waveform Editor.
 Transport controls: Control playback and the position of the playhead, and turn

recording on or off. (For more information, see “

Transport Controls

” on page 25.)

 Master volume slider: Adjusts the overall volume when you play the project. The

volume level defaults to 0 dB when you create a project. Adjusting the master
volume slider does not affect export volume.

 Mono Mix button: Click to listen to a temporary mono mix of the project.
 Playhead Position value slider: Displays the current playhead position. You can move

the playhead by clicking the arrows, dragging, or typing a value.

 Selection Length value slider: Displays the length of the current Timeslice (in the

Timeline) or selection (in the Waveform Editor). You can change the Timeslice or
selection length by clicking the arrows, dragging, or typing a value.
