3. Important Note. When you've got the Recording Switch on and the loop is playing, moving a
knob will erase over all the previously recorded tweaks from that point in the song until the end.
This can be frustrating, so often it's best to get the recording approximately the way you want
it and then make further changes in the Event Editor described in the next section.
4. What can be Recorded? Most knobs and sliders are recordable, including those that control
Plugins. But some controls aren't recordable. The quickest way to tell what's recordable is to
mouse over a control and look for the red recording icon in the Hint Bar. If these steps appear,
then you can record that control.
5. Where is my data? All automation is recorded into the currently selected pattern (see page
15). To see it, in context, place the Pattern Clip in the Playlist track area, the display will show
a mini-graph.
