Join David Franz for an in-depth discussion in this video Using time, tempo, meter, key, and chord, part of Pro Tools 10 Essential Training.
Near the top of the Edit window are the time-based rulers.…The time-based rulers provide timing reference for all track material.…You can choose to view any or all of the time-based rulers in the Edit window…using the Ruler View Selector button, which is right here. Click it once and…you'll see the whole list.…The ones that are checked are the ones we're viewing here.…Now you may not have some of these options in your system, including the…Timecode, Timecode 2, and Feet+Frames.…
The time-bases ruler that's highlighted, in this case the Bars and Beats ruler,…is the current main time scale.…This determines the time format used in the Transport window's main counter down here,…the pre and post-roll times, the Edit Selection area up here, and even the…Grid and Nudge values.…If I switch this to Minutes and Seconds, you'll see all of those areas switch to…showing minutes and seconds.…So you see up here we have Minutes and Seconds. The Grid and Nudge also have…Minutes and Seconds.…
Let's switch back to Bars and Beats.…
