Active cursors are displayed the the cursor strip along the top of the timeline. The default cursors define regions of time. All cursors can be manipulated in their tracks by dragging with the mouse or other operations that apply to regions on the timeline.

The edit cursor defines a region to apply an operation to. The edit cursor is also used to define the region other cursors, such as Punch and Playback, are created from.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>Ctrl+[</tt> moves the beginning of the edit cursor to the position of the playhead. <tt>Ctrl+]</tt> moves the end of the edit cursor to the position of the playhead.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The edit cursor ends can be set individually with the mouse by positioning the pointer over the desired location and pressing <tt>[</tt> or <tt>]</tt>. Alternatively, both may be set at once by holding the <tt>r</tt> key and left-click+dragging the selection rectangle.

<p>
|
|
Hitting <tt>Ctrl+Shift+P</tt> defines a new Punch Cursor with the same dimensions and position as the Edit Cursor.

A Non-DAW project is a directory where Non-DAW keeps the journal, project specific settings, notes, some meta-data, and, last but not least, your audio sources. A project is completely self-contained. You can rename a project as simply as:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="fig example"><table width=100%><tr><td><pre>
|
|
$ mv Project-A Project-B
|
|
</pre></td></tr>
|
|
</table></div>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Non-DAW projects can refer to audio sources outside of the project directory--clips dropped onto the timeline from a file-manager, for instance. These are not copied into the project by default. This allows the efficient use of audio loop libraries, but introduces external dependencies. Beware that if you ever move, remove, or change one of these external sources, it will affect the Non-DAW projects referencing them.

The clocks tell you precisely where the playhead is. There are several clock types which can be cycled through by left-clicking. The following clock types are available:
|

</p>
|

<ol><li><span>Hours Minutes Seconds</span>

|
|
<p>
|
|
The tempo map serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it provides enough information about the musical structure of your project for Non-DAW to perform intelligent snapping and draw helpful measure lines. Secondly, the tempo map is communicated to other JACK clients at playback time via the JACK Timebase API, so that MIDI accompaniment can follow along to the tempo changes in your song.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Clicking on an empty part of the time or tempo sequences will prompt you for the parameters of a new time or tempo point to be inserted at that position. Hit <tt>Escape</tt> to cancel the insertion. Right-click on a time or tempo point to edit its value. Existing points can be dragged freely.

Add a track to the timeline by pressing the <tt>A</tt> key. Right-clicking on the track header will bring up a context menu by which you can configure the number of channels used by this track. Click on the track name to change it. The <tt>T</tt>akes menu lists all the takes associated with a track. The circular record-enable button is used to arm a track for recording. Only armed tracks will be recorded onto when the master record-enable button on the transport is activated and the transport is started. The 'm' toggle button is mute, the 's' button is solo. Multiple tracks can be soloed at once. <tt>Shift+Mousewheel</tt> will adjust the track height. Remove a track by selecting 'Remove' from its context menu.

To initiate recording, first arm some tracks by toggling their record buttons, then toggle the global record-enable button on the transport. Recording will begin when you press play. During recording, the timeline darkens and refuses normal input. Regions being captured are colored bright red. The viewport will automatically follow the playhead as the recording progresses. Recording stops when you stop the transport or toggle the global record-button.

Sequence is the generic term used to describe all distinct sequences of objects on the timeline.

<h3 id="n:1.1.10.">1.1.10. Regions</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Regions are the most common object on the timeline. Each region represents some portion of an audio source placed at some position in time. Since Non-DAW is non-destructive, regions only <b>represent</b> the source--altering a region does not affect the audio source in any way. Deleting a region does not delete the source--as other regions may still refer to it.

<h5 id="n:1.1.10.1.5.">1.1.10.1.5. Pan</h5>

Instead of requiring you to duplicate a small region 100 times to achieve a looping effect, Non DAW supports looping directly. First, adjust the region duration to cover the amount of time you would like it to loop for. Then, position the mouse pointer over the first place the loop should repeat (i.e. the first bar line after the start of the region) and hit <tt>L</tt>. This will set the loop point for this region, which will be indicated by two white arrows. At playback, the portion of the region before the loop point will loop for the duration of the region.

Add an annotation sequence to a track by right-clicking on the track header to bring up the context menu, and choosing <i>Add annotation</i>. Any number of annotation sequences may be attached to each track. Click on an empty space in the sequence to add a new annotation point. Right click on the annotation point to rename it. Hold down shift and drag with the right mouse button to create a new annotation region of a given duration. Again, right click to edit the text. Only the first line of annotation region text will be displayed on the timeline. Annotation regions are useful for containing lyrics or other cues which have a definite duration. Annotation points are more appropriately used to denote points of interest or change.

Each track may have any number of control sequences attached to it. A control sequence comprises a series of points in time (X axis) and intensity (Y axis). Add a control sequence to a track by picking <i>Add control</i> from its context menu. A control sequence may be named by right clicking on it to bring up the context menu, then picking <i>Rename</i>. The output of a control sequence can be set to one of two modes <i>Control Voltage (JACK)</i> or <i>Control Signal (OSC)</i>.

<tr><td>NOTE:
|
|
Since release 1.1.0, Control Signal is now the default output mode for Control Sequences.
|
|
If you have existing projects and wish to continue using Control Voltage output,
|
|
you must set the mode to Control Voltage manually.

Click anywhere on the control sequence to add a new control point. Control points can be dragged around and selected just like other objects on the timeline. They can even be part of the same selection as regions, permitting you to move regions and control points together in lock-step.

<p>
|
|
<i>Control Voltage</i> is similar to control voltages generated by analog equipment. Setting the Control Sequence mode to Control Voltage will create a JACK output port whose contents simulate an analogue Control Voltage signal. This mode can be used to control anything that accepts CV style input. Useful targets include the Non-Mixer, and SpiralSynthModular.

</p>
|
|
<h5 id="n:1.1.12.1.2.">1.1.12.1.2. Control Signal</h5>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <i>Control Signal</i> mode uses a signal routing layer on top of the OSC protocol to intelligently and automatically discover and control any module parameter in Non-Mixer. The output of one Control Sequence may be connected to any number of Control Signal inputs available in Non-Mixer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Control Signals are more efficient than Control Voltages when a large number of parameters are being automated.

The interpolation mode controls how the relatively small number of Control Points is transformed into a continuously varying signal. The options are <i>None</i> and <i>Linear</i>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When its Interpolation mode is set to <i>None</i>, a Control Sequence will output discrete jumps in value upon the playhead passing each Control Point. This can be useful when instantaneous changes in value are required, such as sudden muting, or changing the modes of plugins.
