Chapter 23: Conductor Tracks and Memory Locations 525
Properties of Memory Locations
When creating a new Memory Location (see
“Creating Memory Locations” on page 526) you
are prompted to define its
Time Properties and
General Properties .
Time Properties
Under Time Properties, a Memory Location can
be set to Marker, Selection, or None. This deter-
mines the type of Memory Location that is cre-
ated. Each of these three Memory Location
types can also save any combination of General
Properties.
Marker Recalls a Timeline location whose refer-
ence can be either Bar|Beat (tick-based) or Abso-
lute (sample-based). When recalling a
Marker
Memory Location , the playback cursor moves to
the Marker’s location and the start and end
times in the Transport window are also updated.
If the Timeline and Edit Selections are linked,
the edit cursor also moves to the Marker loca-
tion.
Markers appear in the Markers ruler with a thin
yellow line extending down through all tracks
in the Edit window (to assist in arranging and
aligning track material). You can click a Marker
in the Markers ruler to recall its location along
with its stored General Properties.
Selection
Recalls an Edit selection or edit cursor
location whose reference can be either Bar|Beat
(tick-based) or Absolute (sample-based). A
Selec-
tion Memory Location lets you store Edit selec-
tions, for one or more tracks, that you return to
often within a session. If the Timeline and Edit
Selections are linked, a Selection Memory Loca-
tion can recall record and play ranges.
None
Recalls no Time Properties and is therefore
referred to as a General Properties Memory Loca-
tion .
Bar|Beat and Absolute Reference
The Reference pop-up determines whether the
Marker or Selection Memory Location is
Bar|Beat or Absolute. When set to Bar|Beat, the
Memory Location is tick-based and its bar and
beat location remains constant if the tempo is
changed—though its relation to audio is scaled,
resulting in a new sample location.

Only contiguous selections can be saved
with Memory Locations. Noncontiguous se-
lections, made with the Object Grabber tool,
will be recalled as if the selections were
made with the Time Grabber tool.
