This is based on the Add Markers script that comes with SF11. I haven't tested it on any other version. Set the zero crossing slope in Preferences -> Editing before running the script.
1. Run Sound Forge's script editor (View -> Script editor).
2. Copy and paste the code below (excluding the Code Block) into the script editor window.
3. Save the file as Add Markers At Zero Points.cs.
4. Change the interval. Save, then run the script. You can remove all the added markers by clicking Sound Forge's undo button.
5. Once the script works, save it and close the script editor. You can add a button on the toolbar to run this script without running the script editor.
/* =======================================================================================================
* Script Name: Add Markers At Zero Points
* Description: This script will add markers at fixed intervals throughout
* the length of the open file, snapping to the next zero point.
*
* Initial State: Run with one file open and (optionally) the Regions List visible.
* (Menu: View > Regions List)
*
* Parameters (Args):
* Step - the interval at which to set markers - DEFAULT: one marker every 10 seconds
* Prefix - the first part of the marker name - DEFAULT: no prefix
* Suffix - the last part of the marker name - DEFAULT: no suffix
*
* Output: None
*
