Howdy all

Just a quick one, how do I change the timeline to show (say for instance) a32nd or a 64th or 128th grid?

I know how to do it in the midi editor, just not in the main timeline where everything goes

EG: I was zooming in and wanted to cut out a bit of coughing on a vocal take, and I noticed I could only cut in chunks of 16th's if you know what I mean?

Thanks guys

 

There's by default grid lines settings shortcut on main toolbar (Action> Options: Toggle grid lines), right click on icon and change it in "Show grid, line spacing" drop down menu

 

yes disabling snap to grid (Alt + S) seems the easiest - then the cursor line isn't restricted to grid lines; you can move it freely.

 

Hold down Shift.

To change Snap settings go to Options > Snap/Grid settings or Alt+L.

Some more shortcuts can be found here:

You can also press Shift + F1 for a more detailed shortcuts list.

Thanks very much for the replies guys, appreciated

I'm still used to the Acid Pro workflow you see before I switched over to Reaper, so I still have my old habits, In Acid you could click on the timeline anywhere and zoom in to 000000/th of a second so it wasn't a problem with fine editing on the fly

But thanks all, there's a number of fixes now you've offered, I think I'll go with just turning snap on and off, seems to be the easiest option, I rarely work outside of 32nd's anyway, so If I need to edit any audio on the fly in the future, that seems like my best option, as opposed to opening the audio in my audio edior
