New Loop Features
The new Dynamic Transport mode allows you to start playback anywhere in the timeline without affecting the current selection by simply placing a Play Start marker — a new feature. You can also edit and move loop selections independently of the Play Start marker, all without manually stopping the transport. Loop playback also automatically updates to the selection without having to manually stop and start the transport. With the new Loop Trim tool, you can turn any audio or MIDI region into a loop instantly. And auditioning audio files is easier than ever: The new Loop Preview mode lets you quickly audition a selected REX or ACID file in the DigiBase™ browser, while Auto Preview mode allows you to audition single or multiple files automatically when selected.
Dynamic Mixing
Forget about having to manually stop and start the transport to make changes to your mix configuration — you can now make many common changes on the fly. Go ahead. Add or remove tracks; add, remove, or copy inserts and sends; change a track’s I/O routing; re-order tracks; and make other changes without having to manually stop playback.
