Window Synchronization

In order to analyze and efficiently compare different versions of the same sound material, you can synchronize the displayed windows. The full synchronization (provided by default when you start a new session with DART Pro) guarantees that all changes in display features made in the active soundfile window (position of the cursor, time zoom, volume zoom, offset, left/right channel selection, marker and block locations, info) will be automatically extended to other windows shown on the screen.

If you want to select custom features to be synchronized, or to disable synchronization, choose the appropriate option using the Synchronization dialog box accessible from the Window menu.

When convenient you can switch the synchronization on (Full) or off (None) by pressing the SYNCHRONIZE button situated on the toolbar. However, the Synchronization dialog allowing you to select custom features due to be synchronized (Custom) is available only from the Window menu.

When comparing the original soundfile with its resampled versions the so-called time synchronization is recommended. Time synchronization (available after checking the Time sync box in the Preferences dialog) allows one to time-align cursors in audio files having different sampling rates.
