87. Enabling Dynamic Transport mode will automatically disable the Link Timeline and Edit Selection option.

Explanation

Enabling Dynamic Transport mode in a software or system will automatically disable the Link Timeline and Edit Selection option.

Explanation

In Dynamic Transport, the play start marker refers to the point in the timeline where playback begins. This marker can be moved during playback, allowing the user to start playback from different points in the timeline. This feature is useful for making precise edits or for reviewing specific sections of a project. Therefore, the statement "the play start marker can be moved during playback" is true.

Submit

Explanation

WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a file format that is only available on Windows. It is commonly used in professional settings for sending audio between locations. WMA files offer high-quality audio compression, making them suitable for professional purposes. Unlike other file formats like wav, mp3, and flac, which are widely compatible across different platforms, WMA files are specific to Windows operating systems.

Submit
93. You can click the expand/collapse triangle on the Tempo Ruler name plate to access the Tempo Editor

Explanation

Submit
96. There are several forms of __________ but they all serve the same purpose: to set a standard playback speed for multiple machines. 

Explanation

Clock references are used to synchronize the playback speed of multiple machines. This ensures that all machines are running at the same speed, allowing for smooth and coordinated playback. Different forms of clock references may exist, but their purpose remains the same. They provide a standard timing signal that keeps all machines in sync, which is particularly important in scenarios where precise timing is required, such as in audio or video production.

Submit
97. Nothing in the session is affected when a session's Song Start marker is changed.

Explanation

When the Song Start marker is changed in a session, it affects the playback and arrangement of the session. The Song Start marker determines the point at which the session will begin playing, so changing its position will alter the starting point of the session. This means that any recorded tracks, automation, or other elements in the session that rely on the original Song Start marker will be affected and may not align correctly with the new starting point. Therefore, the statement that nothing in the session is affected when the Song Start marker is changed is false.

Submit
98. Period(.), a number(#), Plus(+) allows you to add a new window configuration.

Explanation

The statement suggests that using a period, a number, and a plus sign allows the user to add a new window configuration. This implies that these specific characters or symbols have a designated function or command that triggers the addition of a new window configuration. Therefore, the answer "True" indicates that the statement is accurate and that using these characters or symbols does indeed enable the addition of a new window configuration.

Submit
99. You cannot insert a meter event at the beginning of the session to replace the default meter.

Explanation

It is possible to insert a meter event at the beginning of the session to replace the default meter. This means that the statement is incorrect and the correct answer is False.

Submit
100. In order to Loop Record across multiple playlists you must make a timeline selection.

Explanation

To Loop Record across multiple playlists, making a timeline selection is necessary. This means that you need to choose a specific portion of the timeline that you want to loop record, and this selection will be applied across all the playlists. By doing so, the loop recording feature will continuously record and overwrite the selected portion of the timeline in each playlist, allowing for seamless recording across multiple playlists.

Submit
101. The Song Start Position is __________.

Explanation

The correct answer is "First beat of Bar 1". This means that the song starts on the first beat of the second bar. The first bar is typically used as an introductory measure or a pickup measure, so the actual start of the song is on the first beat of the second bar.

Submit
102. In Track Punch, the tracks that you want to record on must be Track Punch Enabled.

Explanation

In Track Punch, the tracks that you want to record on must be Track Punch Enabled. This means that if you want to record on a specific track, you need to make sure that the Track Punch feature is enabled for that track. This allows you to selectively enable or disable Track Punch for different tracks, giving you more control over your recording process. By enabling Track Punch for a specific track, you ensure that any recording you make will only affect that track and not others. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

Submit
103. Pro Tools cannot reconstruct missing fades.

Explanation

Pro Tools is a digital audio workstation that is capable of reconstructing missing fades. This means that if a fade is accidentally deleted or not properly created, Pro Tools can recreate it. Therefore, the statement that Pro Tools cannot reconstruct missing fades is false.

Submit
104. You are able to use Replace Region on multiple tracks at the same time.

Explanation

The statement suggests that it is possible to use the "Replace Region" function on multiple tracks simultaneously. This means that users can select multiple tracks and replace a specific region or section on all of them at once, rather than having to do it individually for each track. This can save time and make editing more efficient, allowing for quick changes across multiple tracks in a project.

Submit
105. You cannot adjust cross-fade fade-in/fade-out lengths individually.

Explanation

The statement states that you cannot adjust the fade-in and fade-out lengths individually for a cross-fade. This means that both the fade-in and fade-out lengths cannot be modified separately. However, the correct answer is false, which means that you can indeed adjust the fade-in and fade-out lengths individually for a cross-fade.

Submit
106. Existing data is overwritten in MIDI Merge.

Explanation

In MIDI Merge, existing data is not overwritten. Instead, it is combined or merged with the incoming data. This allows for multiple MIDI signals to be combined into a single MIDI stream, without losing any of the original data. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Submit
107. Activating Dynamic Transport Mode will automatically enable Loop Playback if it is not already active.

Explanation

Activating Dynamic Transport Mode allows for real-time adjustments to the playback speed and position of audio or video. When this mode is enabled, it automatically activates Loop Playback if it is not already active. Loop Playback allows a specific section of the media to be repeated continuously. Therefore, the statement that activating Dynamic Transport Mode will automatically enable Loop Playback if it is not already active is true.

Submit
108. In Replace Region, you can replace all instances of a region but only on one track at a time.

Explanation

In Replace Region, you have the ability to replace all instances of a region on multiple tracks simultaneously, not just on one track at a time. This allows for a more efficient and streamlined editing process, as you can make changes across multiple tracks with ease.

Submit
109. You can store the Window Configuration list within itself.

Explanation

Storing the Window Configuration list within itself would create a recursive structure, which is not feasible or practical. It would lead to infinite loops and make it difficult to access or manipulate the data effectively. Therefore, it is not a valid approach and the correct answer is false.

Submit
110. __________ are sample-based.

Explanation

Bar/Beat Markers are sample-based. This means that they are markers or indicators placed at specific points in a musical composition to represent the start of a new bar or beat. These markers are used in music production software or digital audio workstations to align different elements of a track, such as drums or melodies, with the rhythmic structure of the music. By using bar/beat markers, producers can easily organize and synchronize their samples or audio clips to create a cohesive and structured composition.

Submit
111. In the MIDI real-time properties window, Write to Region will not apply changes permanently.

Explanation

In the MIDI real-time properties window, selecting "Write to Region" will apply any changes made to the MIDI data permanently. This means that any edits or modifications made to the MIDI data will be saved and cannot be undone. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Submit
112. Changing the Song Start marker will affect sample-based track content.

Explanation

Changing the Song Start marker will not affect sample-based track content. The Song Start marker is used to determine the starting point of the song, and it does not have any direct impact on the content of individual tracks, whether they are sample-based or not. The Song Start marker is mainly used for navigation and organization purposes within the software or device used for music production. Therefore, changing the Song Start marker will not have any effect on the actual content of the tracks themselves.

Submit
113. The remote operation of one machine's transport from another (such as controlling a multitrack tape machine with Pro Tools) is known as ______________.

Explanation

Explanation

In the Flatten Performance and Restore Performance MIDI Features, manually moved or edited notes cannot be restored.

Submit
116. Tempo events and Bar/Beat markers can be used simultaneously.

Explanation

Tempo events and Bar/Beat markers cannot be used simultaneously. Tempo events are used to change the tempo of a musical composition at specific points, while Bar/Beat markers are used to indicate the timing and structure of the composition. Since changing the tempo would affect the timing and structure, it is not possible to use both simultaneously.

Submit
