262 CHAPTER 13 Navigating the Multitrack View • Volume: Use this vertical slider to adjust the wave block's amplitude. You can also directly specify a dB value in the text box above the slider. • Pan: This horizontal slider is used to pan the wave block to the left or right channels of your stereo mix. You may also directly designate the block's pan value by entering it into the box to the right of the slider. A value of -100 is a hard left pan, while 100 means the block is panned all the way to the right channel. • Filename/Path: The name of the wave block (which is initially its filename minus the extension) and the path of the wave block are shown in these two fields. The top field is editable, so you can change how the wave block's name is shown in the session. However, it will actually change the filename when that block is saved back out. • Time Offset: This field shows how far the beginning of the wave block is from the starting point of your session. You can edit this value directly by highlighting the numbers in the field and typing over them, thereby moving the wave block forward or backward through the track. • Hue: Adjust this slider to change the color of the wave block. You can also enter a hue value from 0 to 255 directly in the field over the Hue slider. • Mute: When this box is checked, the block's sound is turned off. Non-muted blocks in that track will play as normal. • Lock in Time: Check this box to prevent the wave block from being moved forward or backwards through the track • Lock for Play Only: This option prevents the wave block from being recorded over. Transpose (MIDI Block Only) Use this command and its submenu options to transpose the key of a MIDI block up or down by up to 7 steps. Set Tempo (MIDI Block Only) The command displays the Adjust MIDI Tempo box, where you can make changes to the tempo of the MIDI block using the Tempo field provided. The value used is percentage, with 100 being the default (no change in tempo). Values over 100 speed up MIDI playback, while values of 99 and under slow down the MIDI block's tempo. Check the Use session tempo box to use the tempo value already specified in View > Session information, which disables the Tempo field. Adjust MIDI Tempo Dialog Zoom in/out (MIDI Block Only) There are 127 note values that a MIDI note can be assigned to. By default, Adobe Audition figures out which is the highest note in a MIDI block and which is the lowest and zooms in the note display in the block so that the highest note is at the top and the lowest is at the bottom. If you select Zoom Out, all the values are displayed on scale with the 127 note values, which gives you lots of extra space in the block. Active Track (MIDI Block Only) This command's submenu lists all of the tracks in the MIDI block. Checkmark a track and Adobe Audition will playback only that track when the MIDI block is played. If you want to hear all of the MIDI block's tracks, checkmark the All item.
