Thanks for your suggestion. It seems 'consolidate' basically does the 
same as 'bounce', which is not what I'm looking for:

I want to to lock the distance between start and end point in the range, 
then click and drag the _range markers_ around.

Like, what does a 3 second loop sound like at 3'55, or 2'15, or 
somewhere inbetween, in the recorded sound.
