Hello there,
I'm trying to preview a 28min sound. And id like to jump a minute in to preview something, except it quantizes to the start of the sound (which is a very good feature), except id like to bypass it here.
I would have liked if a simple click acts normally, but a double click on the sound's timeline jumps to cursor location.

Many thanks for your time and consideration.

Hi!

Quantization to the start of the sound only happens if you click near the start of the sound (maybe the first 15% of the width). If the sound is very long then it might happen that jumping to minute 28 is not possible in the preview player. Also note that if you're on mobile and your using your fingers to tap on a sound player, first tap will play the sound from the beginning regardless of where you tap, and a second tap while the sound is playing will set the cursor to the desired position.

Thanks for posting!
