logarithmic scale scrubbing are allowed.
The use of multimedia controllers is supported for scrubbing. For more information on using the software with multimedia
controllers, please see the online help. To access help, choose Contents and Index from the Help menu.
Tip:
Choose a setting from the JKL/shuttle speed drop-down list on the Editing tab of the Preferences dialog to control the scrub
speed and range when using the keyboard or multimedia controllers.
