Zoom
At times, you may nd yourself wa nting to “zoom in” to the Scrolling Waveform Display to matc h beats more precisely or
to “zoom out” in order to see more of each track. Use the magnifying glass icons directly above the display to do this. The
magnifying glass button on the left zooms out while the button on the right zooms in. The total amount of time (in seconds)
from the left edge to the ri ght edge of the Scrolling Waveform Display is listed betwe en the two buttons.
Loop Points
The Loop Points of the song (set with the Loop In/Out buttons or the QuickCue butto ns) will be shown on the Waveform.
The looped area of the music will a ppear in a lighter shade compared to the rest of t he waveform.
Cue Points
If you’ve used the Cue button or QuickCue button s to place various Cue Markers in the song, you will see them here. The
QuickCue marker s have numbers attached to t hem (corresponding to the assigned QuickCue button) and the standard
Cue Point appears as an orange l ine.
Phase Grid
Torq superimposes a Phase Grid over the Scrolling Waveforms to indicate th e location of the beats in a so ng. The thicker
lines in the Pha se Grid indicate the location s of the downbeats in the music. Torq will attempt to positi on the Phase Grid
in the proper location as p art of the analysis when loading a son g into a Deck. Torq uses the position of the Phase Gr id to
properly synchronize the song.
If you would like to turn the Phase Grid li nes off, click the “ Hide Phase Grid” butto n located above the waveform d isplay
(next to the zoom controls).
