Return cursor to start position when record stops

[mixnar]

Hi there,

Is this possible? At the moment you always have to manually set the cursor to the start position after recording. It kills the workflow a bit.

Thanks!

From the option button on the edit screen is "Return cursor to start position when play stops"

Another tip that might be useful:

I enable the "Return cursor to start position" option. Then I go to "Keyboard Shortcuts", and bind the "Stop" shortcut to "ctrl + spacebar". The Stop shortcut pauses playback at the cursor position. This way, I can use both behaviors at the same time.

Thanks for the replies!

I’m aware for the ‘return cursor after stop’ function in the options. Though, this doesn’t alter the way the cursor behaves after recording (actually why not?). At the moment when you record and press the spacebar twice (stop recording and start playing) the cursor starts after the recorded clip (as if it hadn’t stopped), so you don’t hear the recorded clip. You have to manually set the cursor at the starting point of the recorded clip.
It would be great if the ‘return cursor after stop’ function also alters the record start/stop behaviour.
