Bogart SE 5 User manual
this sound recording with other sound tracks, clipping will very
probably occur at these peaks. However, this function is not
available for the lowest screen resolutions (such as SCART).
Should you wish to insert a point while in this view, you could:
•Clickwiththelargelefttrackballbuttononthelineofthe
envelope curve, or
•Clickonthesmallleftbutton.Thiswillactivateacontext
menu in which you should select ‘Insert point’. (Please refer to
‘context actions’ below).
A red square will be inserted in this spot. It serves as a set
point. Should you want to move such a point, you should
move the mouse pointer to the icon and then click on the left
trackball button. This selects the red square and its color is
subsequently changed to green.
In order to move, you should click on the green dot. It will now
become blue to indicate that you can move it.
Note: If you have installed and activated the Power-Key Op-
tion (an add-on product), you have the ability to select several
squares at the same time and move them together. To do
this, you must select a square on the envelope, press the Shift
key on the external keyboard, and then select the square at
the other end of the range you want to select. The squares in
between will also become green and moveable.
Should clipping occur, this will be indicated in red. While edit-
ing the envelope curve, the red color changes of the gauge line
will indicate where clipping occurs. Of course, this information
is only about the sound sample, not about the overall relation-
ship with the other tracks.
The functions displayed here are directly connected to the
corresponding sound sample. This is called a ‘context menu’.
Thanks to this type of menu, you can prevent long clicking se-
quences with the trackball, and save a lot of time as well. Here,
you should find several functions you are familiar with, but also
new functions.
You should move the mouse pointer to the icon and then click
on the left trackball button. Fewer functions will be displayed
for samples of the original sound than for samples of the
mixing tracks. The table below contains a description of the
functions.
Envelope
The envelope curve can be changed directly in each sample
that has been displayed. When you are in the timeline mode,
you can now edit the envelope curve directly while you are ed-
iting the sound. If you change the master volume of the sound
sample, you will see this immediately reflected in changes to
the envelope curve. You can now also see immediately if there
is clipping (overmodulation) in the sample.
If the peaks of the envelope are marked red, this indicates clip-
ping in these spots. This is purely computational. It is best to
also test if this clipping can be heard. Should you want to mix

pe. Clicking on the right trackball button will stop this context action.
