Scrubbing Audio Files
Scrubbing an audio file lets you hear the audio at the playhead position as you drag the
playhead so you can quickly find a particular sound or event in the audio file.
The Soundtrack Pro Scrub tool provides detailed scrubbing that realistically
approximates the “rock-the-reels” scrubbing on analog tape decks.
To scrub an audio file with the Scrub tool:
1
In the Timeline or the File Editor, click the Scrub tool or press H.
2
Drag the Scrub tool left or right across a clip in the Timeline or across the File Editor.
When you use the Scrub tool in the multitrack Timeline, you can only scrub one clip at
a time. To scrub multiple tracks at once, scrub with the playhead.
