Properties (sample only)
Brings up the Sample Properties window shown below. Whenever you map a sample to a region, the unity
note, fine tuning, and loop points defined here will be copied into that region’s articulation. If you want
these values applied to regions to which this sample is already mapped, check the corresponding boxes
under “Update all derived cases” – otherwise, those regions will continue to sound with their previously
assigned values.
Edit audio (sample only)
This command will launch an external audio editor so that you can edit the sample. Th e audio editor must
be specified in the Preferences. Th e file you will actually be editing is a temporary .wav file, which the
editor will delete when it is no longer needed. To hear your edit, first save the file from the audio editor,
and then save and reload the .gig file.
Audition (sample only)
Plays the selected sample.
Find instance: [Ctrl] + [F] (sample only)

can visit them in turn by repeating the command.
