For instance, when I find something in the timeline that needs replacing... Shift Click L1, then when I see what area I want to copy from I press Shift Click L2. Then replacing/editing is as simple as Click L1 or L2 or L3 or L4 ... back and forth - very fast. (would be even faster with suggestion below)
I've suggested to Bob a feature that the Locate Points could be "Track Sensitive" (as well as Time Sensitive), which would great increase productivity (for me). Most of what I'm editing/replacing involves regions on different tracks at different timeline points, and having a "Track Sensitive" Locate option would allow me to quickly locate the exact time/region/track points for quickly pinpointing specific edits. This would save a lot of F-Key changes/zooming/track changing each edit.... hughe time saver.
Hi Carl. Long time no...
This kind of approach is great when I'm visiting a specific place in the timeline more than once. Alas...
E.g., what I'm doing right now where the "go-to" feature is useful is when I come across problem parts in a video project I'm working on in a video editing program. I have a stereo track in that project that contains the master mix that was done in SAWStudio. When I come to a spot in this 80-minute project that needs an audio tweak, I make a note of the time code position, then jump over into SAWStudio, tap the time code numbers into the "go-to" window, hit enter, and I'm taken right to where I need to be to make the mix tweak. I can leave the zoom settings alone. And I can do this over and over and over again quickly and efficiently.
