You may want to zoom in or out the waveform while working with waveforms. In this section of tutorial, you will learn basic operations on zoom in/out feature in MySoundStudio.
MySoundStudio allows you to zoom in or zoom out the waveform for easier editing work.
You can zoom the waveform in both timeline direction and amplitude direction.
First, let's zoom the waveform in timeline direction.
- Open the file me1.wav located in the Tutorial folder.
- Place the mouse pointer on the center of the waveform as shown below, and click.
A flashing cursor appears at the clicked position.
- Choose View - Zoom In.
Notice that waveform is enlarged horizontally (in time direction).
- Click
(the Zoom In button) on the bottom right of the multi-track window.
The view of waveform is zoomed in by another increment.
(The function of View - Zoom In and (the Zoom In button) is the same.)
- Press
several times until the waveform view changes from line to points.
The individual points represent a sample, the smallest unit of the waveform data.
- Choose View - Zoom Out.
This time the waveform is reduced by one increment.
- Press
(the Zoom-Out button) on the bottom left of the multi-track window several times.
The entire waveform data is displayed in the multi-track window.
You can also use and on the tool bar to zoom in or out the waveform in timeline direction.
