Zoom
At times, you may find yourself wanting to “zoom i n” to the Scrolling Waveform Display to match beats more preci sely
or to “zoom out” in order to see more of each trac k. Use the magnifying glass icons d irectly above the display to do this.
The magnifying glass butt on on the left zooms out while the butto n on the right zooms in. The total amount of tim e (in
seconds) from the left edge to the right edge of t he Scrolling Waveform Display is listed between the t wo buttons.
Loop Points
The Loop Points of the song (set with the Loop In/Ou t buttons or the QuickCue buttons) will be show n on the
Waveform. The looped area of the music will appear in a l ighter shade compared to the rest of the waveform .
Cue Points
If you’ve used the Cue button or QuickCue butt ons to place various Cue Markers in the song, you wil l see them here.
The QuickCue markers have numbers attac hed to them (corresponding to the assigned Quick Cue button) and the
standard Cue Point appears as an orang e line.
Phase Grid
Torq superimposes a Phase Grid over the Scrolling Waveforms to indicate t he location of the beats in a song. The thicker
lines in the Phase Grid indicate the loc ations of the downbeats in the music. Torq will attempt t o position the Phase Grid
in the proper location as part of the an alysis when loading a song into a Deck. Torq uses the position o f the Phase Grid to
properly synchronize the song.
If you would like to turn the Phase Grid lines off , click the “Hide Phase Grid” button lo cated above the waveform display
(next to the zoom controls).
