# Setting Markers

Markers allow you to set specific locations in a song that you're interested in. More importantly, markers serve as points in the song which you can jump to quickly using the keyboard. See the Moving Around in a Song section for more information.

Capo will let you set four types of markers:

- Chorus
- Verse
- Bridge
- Generic (or, just a Marker)

The marker types, and when to use them, might seem obvious. However, the use of markers is entirely up to you.

In most situations, you would simply place a chorus marker at the beginning of the chorus, a verse marker at the beginning of the verse, and a bridge marker at the beginning of the bridge. You would use a generic marker everywhere else.

Generic markers are great for marking particular trouble spots inside a song that you may want to mark for later learning. When transcribing, it's always best to move along when you reach a section you have difficulty with, and return to it later.

#### To drop a marker:

- Press the 'c', 'v', 'b', or 'm' key to drop a Chorus, Verse, Bridge, or a generic marker, respectively.

#### To move a marker:

- Click on the marker in the timeline, and drag it to the new position.

#### To delete a marker, do one of the following:

- If the playhead is above the marker you wish to delete, press the 'c', 'v', or 'm' key depending on what kind of marker you're deleting.
- Left-click on the marker in the timeline, and drag it down off the timeline. Release the left mouse button to delete it.
