    Basic audio monitoring

    Posted by Gergo Szabo on June 26, 2011 at 10:20 pm

    Hi there,

    I am just try to switch from FCP (I think you all know why :)) and I have a basic problem. How can I turn on the audio monitoring while I scroll the ruler on the timeline (or the Source window) or when I use the “Left” and “Right” arrows?

    Thanks
    Gary

    Audio scrubbing? Turn on caps lock.

    Alternately, just hold the shift key when you want to scrub audio as you are stepping through video. I’m not sure it makes a difference any more but in older systems with less powerful systems of days past, leaving the audio scrub on (via capslock) would slow down the application. I also personally don’t care for things typed in ALL CAPS as a routine, I find it harder to read.
