3. The quick command bar. You can perform various operations with audio data.

4. A selected region indicated with yellow curve on a white background (colors depend on your system settings). The current cursor position is indicated by a blinking line.

5. The region list window.

6. The bar indicating the selected region, the viewed region and the cursor position. During processing, the progress is displayed in the status bar.

7. The navigation toolbar for recording, playback and cursor positioning.

8. Time Domain.

Time Domain: The normal wave plot shown when making a recording in Total Recorder Editor is a time domain representation of the signal. When recording, Total Recorder Editor has taken samples of the signal at certain intervals, quantized them, and stored them as series of digitized values. The wave plot is the result of drawing these samples on the screen with the time evolving along the horizontal axis.

9. The output level meters show the current output level during audio playback.
