What is that green bar at the bottom?
The sound files in Can-8 are presented both aurally and visually. The green sound bar at the bottom of the screen shows the voice signature of the sound file.
In listening screens, there is one sound bar that shows the example (instructor) sound.
Listening Sound Bar: Sound bars have a red cursor indicating the progression through the sound clip. You may move this cursor to listen to a part of the sound clip again.
In recording screens, there are two sound bars. One is the example (instructor) bar and the other is the student bar.
Recording Sound Bar: When you record, you can compare your recording to the example by listening to both sound clips and also by visually comparing the voice signatures.
In addition to using the Play or Example buttons to listen to the entire sound clip again, you may also move the red cursor in the sound bar. The file will begin playing from that point, allowing you to listen to just one specific part of the sound again. If the file is long or if you are having trouble with one particular part, you may want to move the cursor listen to that spot again, rather than listening to the entire sound clip.
