Wave Panel Configuration

 

 


Timing Display

The time axis of the audio waveform is indicated via a grid of vertical lines drawn at regular time intervals.  AudioExplorer can either draw a fixed number of these lines drawn at a time interval that is calculated based on the total time of the displayed waveform, or it can draw lines at a fixed time interval.  Using the latter option, the grid may become very dense, or it may disappear entirely depending on the duration of the audio data and the current zoom level.

 

Grid Density Select this option to draw a fixed number of timing grid lines, and enter the number of lines desired in the text box.  To disable grid lines, enter 0.
Fixed Interval Select this option to used a fixed delta-time between the grid lines, and enter the time interval in the text box.  To disable grid lines, enter 0.

Zooming

AudioExplorer provides several mechanisms for zooming into a portion of the audio waveform.  The "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out" commands (available from either the Wave Panel context menu, or from the WavePanel toolbar) zoom in or out, respectively, by a fixed percentage factor. 

 

Zoom In/Out Factor Enter a percentage value to be used by the "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out" commands.
Auto-zoom to Selection When checked, drag-selection of a region of the audio waveform will cause the current waveform view to zoom into the new selection.
