Ah, thanks! I had no idea about those buttons since the audio tutorial I listened to only used the F4 and spacebar to play files. Actually, in that older version of GW, hitting F4, or the space bar, did play from the start marker, but there must have been a change in the Gold Wave program or something.
Anyway, so far, I don't notice a difference between the F2 and the F4 keys, they seem to react the same, but the F3 is doing what I needed it to do. And Rick, thanks, the only tutorials I've listened to were Start Buttons, which were very good, although a bit outdated. GW is reacting different in some cases to the way it did when he did the tutorial. -----Original Message----- On Behalf Of Hamid AITOUZNAG Hi, Concerning your questtion, you should know that goldWave uses three different play buttons; each one of them plays from a different spot in the file. One plays the file from the beginning regardless of where the markers are located. The other plays the area between the markers and the third plays only from the current cursor location. Those buttons are accessed from the keyboard using the F2, F3 and F3 keys. I guess that you have used only F4 or space bar to play the file. Try the other buttons to notice the difference! I hope that helps Hamid AITOUZNAG "We never value what we have until we lose it!" Skype: hamidgeni Twitter: hamidgeni On 13/05/2011 19:14, Chris Feist wrote: > HI.
