Nudge soundbite edges

Post by fafalio »

Is it possibile to assign in digital performer Four keyboard shortcuts in order to move Edge/boundaries of a soundbite right and left of a fixed amount for example 3ms?
Summing up:
Moving left edge right and left
Moving right edge right and left

I m speaking about moving the edges not the entire soundbite

Alessandro thanks

Do you really mean Digital Performer 4? Yikes. I recycled that manual set over ten years ago.

There is no pdf file for the DP 4 user guide... except that there is, sorta-kinda. The Performer Lite is a major cut and paste job based on the DP4 manual. It's mentioned over 50 times and the pages and indexes refer to functionality that doesn't exist in PL along with referring you to other pages that do not exist. Good luck.

Way back then, Nudge was set in Preferences under some drop down menu that kept changing. Now it's set in the Snap Window which may not have existed back then.

It's a typo...no?

I think he means four shortcuts not Digital Performer 4?

The nudge settings allow one value. There might be something in the Commands window, but I doubt it. You can set nudge to the lowest of the values you want and press the nudge key more than once for more nudging. Or get one of the third party macro key command apps and set up nudge commands in that.
