Where does a newbie ask very basic questions?

Post by drumguy1234 » Tue Mar 25, 2014 8:10 am

I have searched the manual and cannot find how to use spacebar in such a way that when i stop the track I am listening to, at a mid point or at any point,
hitting spacebar does not return to bar 1? I know using Shift + Spacebar will work for this purpose. But hitting Shift is an extra keystroke I would like to avoid.
I thought there was a way to use solely the Spacebar, without using Shift key!
Where does this post belong!?
Thank you

Nope. I mean, I've seen max4live patches that create a midi-mappable pause button... or you could make a shortcut in autohotkey/ukelele or something... but it really seems like more effort than it's worth. I much prefer to loop a section, right click the start of the loop brace and select "set song start time here", so that it jumps to the marker instead of 1.1.1. This lets me focus on a particular section and start from the beginning of that section every time.
