Sample Editor Context Menu - HALion - 7.1

Click and drag with this tool to create a selection.

If this tool is selected, you can click at a particular position in the waveform to zoom in on it.

If this tool is selected, you can click in the waveform to start playback. The sample is played back from this position until you release the mouse button.

If this tool is selected, you can click in the waveform and drag sideways to play back the audio. The playback direction and speed depend on how fast and how far you move the mouse to the left or to the right from the position where you clicked.

• Zoom In zooms in one step.

• Zoom Out zooms out one step.

• Zoom Full displays the entire sample in the waveform display.

• Toggle Zoom Full/Last switches between the last zoom setting and the display of the entire sample.

• Zoom to Selection zooms in on the current selection.

• Undo/Redo Zoom allow you to undo/redo the last zoom setting.

• Zoom to Sample Start/End zooms in on the sample start or end marker, depending on which of them is nearer to the position of the cursor.

• Zoom to Sample Start zooms in on the start marker of the sample.

• Zoom to Sample Start Range zooms in on the start range.

• Zoom to Sample End zooms in on the end marker of the sample.

• Zoom to Sustain Loop zooms in on the entire sustain loop.

• Zoom to Sustain Loop Start zooms in on the start of the sustain loop.

• Zoom to Sustain Loop End zooms in on the end of the sustain loop.

• Zoom to Release Loop zooms in on the entire release loop.

• Zoom to Release Loop Start zooms in on the start of the release loop.

• Zoom to Release Loop End zooms in on the end of the release loop.

• Zoom to Release Start zooms in on the release start.

• Zoom to Start zooms in on the start of the sample file.

• Zoom to End zooms in on the end of the sample file.

• Zoom to Range zooms in on the selection range.

• Read Root Key and Tuning From File allows you to set the root key and the tuning to the values that are saved in the sample file. The current zone settings are overwritten with the sample file settings.

  Note

  This option is only available if the corresponding information is available in the sample file.

• Read Sample Loop from File sets the loop markers to the values that are saved in the sample file.

  Note

  If no loop markers are defined in the file, Loop Start and Loop End are set to 0, which means that no loop is played.

• Read Sample Start/End from File applies the sample start/end markers that are saved in the sample file to the sample zone. If no start/end markers are defined in the file, the start and the end of the sample are used.

• Read Sample Markers from File applies the sample start/end and loop start/end markers that are saved in the sample file to the sample zone.

• Open in External Editor allows you to open and edit the sample in an external editor.

  Note

  This function is only available if an external editor is specified in the Edit section of the Options Editor.

• Show in Explorer/Finder navigates to the file in the File Explorer/macOS Finder.

• Trim Sample to Start/End trims the sample according to the start and end markers.

• Trim Sample to Selection trims the sample according to the current selection range.

• Normalize Sample normalizes the sample by detecting the highest peak level in the sample and adjusting the gain so that it matches the Normalize Level setting.

• Copy Sustain Loop to Release Loop copies the start/end marker positions of the sustain loop to the release loop.

• Copy Release Loop to Sustain Loop copies the start/end marker positions of the release loop to the sustain loop.

• Copy Loop A to B copies the settings of loop A to loop B.

• Copy Loop B to A copies the settings of loop B to loop A.

• Set Sustain Loop to Sample Start/End sets the sustain loop start and end marker positions to those of the sample start and end markers. This is useful for drum loops, for example.

• Set Sample Start/End to Sustain Loop sets the sample start and end marker positions to those of the sustain loop start and end markers. This can be used to create sliced loops from longer sample files.

• Set Sample Start/End to Selection moves the start and end points of the sample to the start and end points of the selection range.

• Set Sustain Loop to Selection moves the sustain loop markers so that they encompass the selection range.

• Set Release Loop to Selection moves the release loop markers so that they encompass the selection range.

• Create Zone from Selection creates a new sample zone from the selection range.

Determines the range that is displayed when switching samples in the Program Tree.

• Auto uses the view range of the previous sample.

• Last restores the most recently saved view range for the sample.

• Full shows the entire sample.

• Sample shows the range between sample start and sample end markers.

• Sample Start shows the sample start marker with the current zoom factor.

• Sample Start Range shows the sample start range marker with the current zoom factor.

• Sample End shows the sample end marker with the current zoom factor.

• Sustain Loop shows the entire sustain loop.

• Sustain Loop Start shows the start marker of the sustain loop with the current zoom factor.

• Sustain Loop End shows the end marker of the sustain loop with the current zoom factor.

• Release shows the release marker.

• Release Loop shows the entire release loop.

• Release Loop Start shows the start marker of the release loop with the current zoom factor.

• Release Loop End shows the end marker of the release loop with the current zoom factor.
