“Play from Anchor” and “Play until Anchor”

The behavior of the Play from Anchor or Play until Anchor functions on the transport bar depends on the pre-roll and post-roll settings.

Play from Anchor

• If post-roll is activated, playback starts at the anchor position and stops after the post-roll time. If no post-roll is selected, playback continues until the end of the audio file or audio montage.

• If pre-roll is activated, playback starts from the selected anchor, minus the pre-roll time.

• If pre-roll and post-roll are activated, playback starts from the selected anchor, minus the pre-roll time, and stops after the anchor point plus the post-roll time.

• With the loop mode activated, the pre-roll and post-roll settings are taken into account. This enables you to play a loop around the edit cursor position, without having to make further range settings.

Play until Anchor

• Playback starts from the cursor and stops at the selected anchor. If the cursor is beyond the selected anchor, playback starts at the selected anchor. If pre-roll is activated, it is taken into account.

• If pre-roll is activated, playback starts from the selected anchor, minus the pre-roll time, up to the selected anchor.

• If no anchor is selected, Play until Anchor is deactivated.

• The loop settings have no effect.
