Files
The term "Files" refers to the individual recordings which always exist within a particular
Directory. A File is always a 2-channel recording and may be up to 130 minutes long, or the
time remaining on the hard disk.
After a Directory is selected, the top line of the display shows the Directory name, the
sample rate selected for the Directory, and the remaining space on the hard disk. The display
presents an alphabetized list of the Files present, including the running time of each File, and in
brackets, the Hot Key to which a File may be assigned. For example: [3].

USING HOT KEYS
Hot Keys are so named because they perform an
immediate
or "hot" audio playback
function programmed into them. The Shortcut Editor provides 10 Hot Keys. In their most
basic form, an audio "sound bite" can be mapped to a Hot Key for instant playback at a later
time. In addition, the Shortcut Editor provides a number of
new
Hot Key functions:
•
A
HOT KEY
plays audio mapped to that key.
•
A highlighted segment of audio can be Cut or Copied
from
a File being edited,
to
a specific
HOT KEY
. It is also saved to disk as a new File.
•
Any File in the current Directory can be Copied (Assigned) to a
HOT KEY
.
•
The audio under a
HOT KEY
may be Inserted into a File being edited.
•
A set of 10
HOT KEY
assignments is stored with
each
Shortcut directory.
Copy A Selected Segment To A Hot Key
A highlighted audio segment can be Copied to a hot key by holding down copy, and
pressing the desired hot key. The audio segment is also saved as a new File. A default File
name will be presented, with an option to rename it. Type in the new name, or accept the
default by pressing E
NTER
.
When attempting to Copy or Cut to a Hot Key that already has a file assigned to it, you
are warned. If you confirm that you wish to reassign the Hot Key, the name for the new file
created by this operation defaults to the name of the file currently assigned to the Hot Key.
