Not to mention which, if it's music you are editing, there's the tiny fraction of time when you anticipate the down beat of a measure; and, in anticipation of this, you might perhaps press the M key too early or late. That's one thing I do love about Amadeus Pro. You can slow down the playback speed, and, get the insertion point spot on exactly where you need it to be then use the p key to drop the marker on the spot. That's where being able to use the space bar to pause playback and manually move the insertion point comes in to play…no pun intended. IN fact, that's one of the advantages of being able to move the insertion point seperately. Having the layback paused by the use of the space bar and then resume exactly where you were playing before saves a tremendous ammount both of time and trouble. At first, I must admit, a seperatley movable insertion point that did not trail the playback kind of through me; but, once I got used to how it worked, It's nothing at all now. Frankly, I don't see the justfication in paying $30.00 for an editing app which fails to offer the flexibility I require.
