Thank you everyone for this discussion & sharing of scrubbing. Very helpful!
Another tool to experiment with.

If I have time in the next couple days, I'll do a short audio tutorial on
scrubbing. In this instance, hearing is believing. I'm not suggesting that
everyone needs to use it, but for those of us who do, it is a real life saver.

Actually, It also works very well for editing music. I recorded a CD of a
quartet of voices a couple years ago. They couldn't get through more than two
measures at a time without blowing something. I have to say that No one,
including Neal can hear any of the edits in that CD, and some of the cuts
were extremely close. I could not have done it without scrubbing.

I find the scrubbing feature to be extremely useful when editing spoken word
audio and trying to make fine edits. People often run together words and it
can be difficult to make a clean cut between words without this scrubbing
feature. This is another feature that is implemented particularly well in SR
so that people using a screen reader can make these precise edits that might
not be possible otherwise.

Scrubbing
Scrubbing refers to a feature that makes it easy to perform detailed editing
jobs. Here is how it works:
When you use the scrub commands, Scrub Back (Ctrl+Left Arrow) to scrub
backward or Scrub Forward (Ctrl+Right Arrow) to scrub forward, Studio
Recorder moves you a very small distance in the direction of the scrub.
The program then plays a small portion of the document at the new position.
By default, the program also loops the playback as long as you hold down the
Control key. The amount of movement and the amount of time that the program
plays back from the new position are both adjustable.
To adjust these settings, specify the Scrub Move Time and the Scrub Play Time
options in the General tab of the Settings dialog in the Options menu. The
Loop Scrubs option in the Advanced tab controls whether or not scrub segments
are looped.
Pixel Scrubbing
In addition to the normal scrubbing functions, Studio Recorder supports Pixel
Scrubbing. Pixel scrubbing works in the Wave view when the transport is
stopped. When you use the Left and Right arrow keys, the program plays the
sound represented by the pixel under the caret. The distance moved and the
amount played is controlled by the Zoom In and Zoom Out commands, so the
further you zoom out, the more you move and the more you hear.
There is a menu item in the Options menu which controls whether the playing
of pixels is looped. If this item is checked, pixels are looped until another
transport function (such as stop) is used.
The looping feature is automatically disabled if you zoom in far enough that
the sound that would be played would be short enough or at a high enough
frequency to be meaningless. This is done in an attempt to avoid very high
frequency signals from being generated while looping. High frequency signals
could damage hearing or equipment.
