Soundbite "Move-to" command

Post by bankbot »

Hey all, I've been searching in vain for a while on this topic, but I'm sure it's buried somewhere in the MN vaults... I'm using DP 7.22 to add some sounds to a film. Workflow-wise, it would be really great if I could add a soundbite to a track, and then type in on some tab the exact timecode I want it to start at, much like one can do in the markers window. Is there a way to do this???

When you select the soundbite in on your track in the Sequence editor, you'll see a bar marked with an "E" just above the time ruler. That's Event information. The first time next to the big E will be the start time of the soundbite. Change the number and the soundbite moves to that timecode.

I think you can also do this in the Event list, but I'm always in the SE, and it's right there.

Hope this helps!

Select the region and hit command-L.
Choose the top tab "To Tab or Marker".

Another way: Edit > Shift

Oh, sorry. I see someone else already mentioned this. I didn't recognize the key command because mine have been changed.

c-ya,
