How do you enable Digital Audio Scrub temporarily?

• A. Shift-drag through the Timeline to enable it temporarily
• B. Map the Toggle Digital Audio Scrub button (Play tab of the Command Palette) and enable it
• C. Press the Spacebar while scrubbing
• D. Right-click the Timeline and choose Enable Digital Audio Scrub

Answer: (A)

Digital Audio Scrub is designed to be used on-the-fly during scrubbing. The quickest way to enable it temporarily is by Shift-dragging through the Timeline. Holding Shift while you drag makes the scrub play the audio as you move the playhead, so you can hear exactly where your edit should land. Once you release the mouse (and the Shift key), you return to normal scrubbing without changing any saved preferences. This is why Shift-drag is the best answer for a momentary audio-scrub action. Other methods either change settings globally (permanently enabling the feature) or do not specifically trigger audio scrubbing during the move.
