Using Memory Locations for Zoom Control
Pro Tools Memory Locations let you store many
attributes with each marker or memory loca-
tion, including Track Height and Zoom Settings.
By creating Memory Locations that are neither
Markers nor Selections, but have Track Height,
Zoom Settings, or other options enabled, you
can use Memory Locations to zoom in and out
using just the numeric keypad.
Importing Audio
Pro Tools LE lets you import existing audio files
from disk. This is very useful if you have audio
files already recorded to disk or if you are work-
ing with CD-based sample libraries that you
want to use in a new session.
To import audio files or regions from disk:
■
Choose File > Import Audio to Track to import
files and regions to new audio tracks (they will
also appear as regions in the Audio Regions List).
– or –
■
Choose Import Audio from the Audio Regions
List pop-up menu to import files and regions to
the Audio Regions List only.
To import a CD audio track:
1
Put the source CD into your computer’s CD
drive.
2
Use a third party software program of your
choice to extract audio from the CD.

locations, see “Memory Locations” on
page 78.
