Title: Side Markers Usage ?
Post by: bshonbeck on September 01, 2025, 12:55:47 PM
I was wondering what additional use the Side Markers have (vertical dashed gray lines) other than to indicate where a needle up/down may have occurred.  Are they actually just indicators where the recording was paused/stopped?  Does the software use them to make any decisions or are they benign?  I ask because I see instances where things I've done have caused extra Side Markers to appear (using Pause Record comes to mind).  I couldn't find any detail in the manual other than that to remove them, the recording up to that point must be re-recorded.  I've let them remain in the recording and have not experienced any issues from not eliminating them.  Is there a reason to remove them?

As a VS Noob, I'm really enjoying VS's ease of use compared to the Audacity workflow I had used a decade ago.  Great job Paul !!

They're just there for information - they don't actually do anything.
