Playback.The mix can be played either by hitting the P key or the Space Bar on the keyboard, or the 5 key on the keypad, or by clicking on the Play button (fourth from left) in the Control window. Stop play by hitting the Space Bar or the keypad 5 again, or the S key, or the Stop button.

The Time marker at the top of the Timeline shows the point from which playback will start. It will move along as the mix plays, so you can stop and then start again from the same point. Or you can drag it to any time that you want to be the start point, or simply click above the top track at the place you want it to be.

Double clicking on the Time marker brings up a requester for setting an exact time.

The Rewind button in the Control window moves the Time marker to the start of the whole song. So do the B key on the keyboard (Beginning) and the 7 key on the keypad. The Fast Forward button moves the Time marker to the end of the last sample. The 4 and 6 keys on the keypad move it forward and backward by one second.

The Play From Start button in the Control window moves the Time marker to zero and then starts playback.

The Locators allow you to mark up to 10 time points in the song. Move the Time marker to the desired time and select Add Locator from the Markers menu, or hit L on the keyboard. A new Locator will appear, covering the Time marker. Drag to move the Time marker out from under the Locator (or hit 4 or 6 on the keypad).

Each Locator is numbered and the 1 to 0 keys on the main keyboard will jump the Time marker to that position. This is useful for moving around in a long song. The Locators can be sorted into numeric order with the Sort Locators menu item.

Double clicking on any locator brings up a requester allowing you to set an exact time or delete the locator. The menu item "Delete Locators" will remove all of them. The Regionise requester for samples also has a button to clear all the locators.

When playing the mix, you will find that each additional track is added to the total volume, just as when another musician is added to a band in real life. If the total sound level gets too high, reduce it with the Master fader, or some of the track faders.
