The Selection Parameter Field
The Seection Parameter fiels (2) displays the position and
length of the current selection numerically. The units of display
are dependent on the View setting for the Sample editor.
Working with Regions in the Sample Editor
When precision is important, the borders of regions should be
manipulated in the Sample Editor.
Region borders can be edited with to the precision of a single
sample word, if a high enough zoom setting is used. You can
also position the anchor, to change the part of the region used as
the position reference in the Arrange window. Remember that
the position display for a region in the Arrange window always
shows the position of the anchor, not the start point of the
region.
There are gadgets to adjust the start, anchor and end points of
a region, along the bottom edge of the Waveform
