The Viewing pane contains a waveform representation of your announcement. As you play an
announcement using the audio commands, the vertical announcement Marker moves across the viewing
pane from left to right so that you can identify the exact location of different parts of your recording. You
can edit any part of your announcement by manipulating the waveform and using the audio commands.
You can also remove parts of the message that are no longer required.
The Text area allows you to type your announcement before recording it. You can read the message from
the menu while recording to help you eliminate pauses in your announcement.
The Toolbar contains visual shortcuts to the most frequently used menu items. Hold the pointer over a
button to show the tool tips. The toolbar contains View, Select, and Process commands, as well as standard
Audio commands found on most applications.
