You can scrub audio at any speed between -100% and +100% of real time (locked rate scrub) or do a free form scrub. You can scrub a single audio track or all audio tracks.

To scrub audio in the timeline:

1. Do one of the following:
   • To scrub all audio tracks, place the focus point on the video track.
   • To scrub a single track, place the focus point of the positioner on that track. See Changing the Current Track.
2. Click in the scrub bar at the location in the timeline where you want to scrub the audio. Continue to hold down the mouse button.
3. Do one of the following:
   • For a locked rate scrub, press Alt +Ctrl and drag the positioner left or right to scrub the audio. Dragging farther to the left or right increases the playback speed. You cannot scrub faster than real time. You can hear all the tracks by pressing Alt +Ctrl+Shift.
   • For a free form scrub, press Alt and drag the positioner left or right to scrub the audio. You can hear all the tracks by pressing Alt +Shift.

   Dragging farther to the left or right increases the playback speed.

   You can toggle between locked and unlocked scrub modes on the fly, by alternating between the Alt and Alt +Ctrl hotkeys.

   TipYou can quickly scrub a single track without moving the focus point by dragging the positioner with the cursor positioned over that track.
4. To scrub one frame at a time, press Ctrl+Shift+C to go back one frame, and Ctrl+Shift+V to go forward one frame.
