<p><b>Welcome to Sonic Visualiser!</b></p> <p>Sonic Visualiser is a |
| 10 |
complex application, but it's easy enough to get started with.</p>
|
| 11 |
<p>Try importing an audio file and using the Pane menu to add some
|
| 12 |
different views of it.</p> <p>Check out the links on the Help menu for |
| 13 |
tutorials and other documentation!</p>

<p>Sonic Visualiser's window is organised into "panes" and
|
| 19 |
"layers". To begin with, you have one pane. Import an audio |
| 20 |
file to see it displayed in a waveform layer on that pane.</p>

<p>Each pane can contain any number of layers, which appear stacked
|
| 26 |
from "front" to "back" on the same timeline. A layer can contain a |
| 27 |
view of audio, or of points (time instants) or data plots (time-values).</p>

| 32 |
<p>There's a "layer property box" to the right of each pane, with one
|
| 33 |
tab for each of the layers on that pane. Click on a layer's tab to |
| 34 |
bring that layer to the front. You can then adjust its colour and |
| 35 |
other display properties in the property box. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
The first tab is always for the pane itself, which has a few |
| 38 |
adjustable properties of its own.</p>

<p>If you have more than one pane, only one of them will be "current",
|
| 44 |
marked with a black bar at the left side. Just click on another pane |
| 45 |
to make it current. Most editing operations affect the layer that's |
| 46 |
at the front of the current pane.</p>

<p>You can use different zoom levels for different panes by un-checking
|
| 52 |
the Global Zoom control for one of them. By default, all panes will |
| 53 |
zoom and scroll together.</p>

<p>The Transforms menu lists things you can do to extract features from
|
| 65 |
or process your audio. The available outputs of any Vamp |
| 66 |
feature-extraction plugins or LADSPA audio effects plugins you have |
| 67 |
will show up here.</p>
