Markers can set position points in your project that are of special importance to your arrangement. On opening any set marker, the play cursor will be moved to the defined marker position. Markers are listed in the topmost line of your virtual project, the so-called marker list, and can be set during playback as well as while recording.

Markers are listed in the topmost line of your virtual project, the so-called marker list, and can be set during playback as well as while recording.

A virtual project in can contain any number of markers. The first ten number markers can be saved using the key combination "Shift + number key" on the corresponding play cursor position and open them directly via the number keys again.
In the menu point "Range -> Save marker -> Marker with name.../ Marker with name and number..." you can freely name additional markers.
To delete a marker, select it by clicking on the front border and then press the "Del" key on your keyboard. Markers can be moved by grabbing them and dragging them to where you want to go, the mouse pointer changes into a double arrow <->. If you right-click inside the marker list or press the "Marker" button to the left beside the marker bar, a context menu will appear from which you can access all the most important marker commands. The Marker Manager can also be accessed via the -> Tools menu -> Managers -> Marker Manager". Here you can manage and edit the markers you set.

To stretch a range between any two markers, first click on the first marker. Then click on the second marker while holding down the Shift key. This selects a new range. Use the function keys "F2" and "F3" to quickly jump back and forth between the marker positions or the keyboard shortcut "Alt+W/Alt+Q" or select the "Range" menu -> Move play cursors -> Marker to the left/right").

Alongside the standard markers there are additional markers that can be used in Sequoia/Samplitude as well:

• The triangular markers for CD burn functions: CD Track Markers are displayed in red, CD Subindex Markers are green and CD Pause Markers are blue.
• Tempo markers signify a tempo change at a specific position in the project.
• Beat markers change the type of beat from a particular marker position, for example, 4/4 beat to 3/4.
• Beat position markers assign a specific musical position to a specific time position. This way, the bar frame/grid and MIDI events can be easily synchronized with existing audio material.
