Preload: The "Preload" option allows you to load all the buffers before
recording actually begins. This enables an immediate recording once you click
the record button. Otherwise, Samplitude 11.5 Producer will load the buffers,
and depending on the size of the buffers and the overall computer speed, this
may take some time.
Sample rate: Select the audio file's sample rate. Make sure that your sound
card supports the selected sample rate.
Resampling to 44.1 kHz: Some Samplitude 11.5 Producer versions can
perform a real-time sample rate conversion to 44.1 kHz, if you are recording
with a different sample rate. For example, a DAT tape is often recorded at 48
kHz, but the tape needs to mastered and prepared for Red Book audio CD
processing (44.1 kHz). Samplitude 11.5 Producer allows you to automatically
convert the audio during the recording, eliminating the additional sample rate
conversion step after the recording.
Device: This selects the desired device driver you want to use for the
recording. If you have more than one sound card installed in your system, this
window will let you specify which card to use. Make sure the sound card is
properly installed in Windows and is operational. If you do not see an entry in
this window, check whether a device driver has been installed for your sound
card. This usually is done during the software installation for your sound card.
? (Device): By clicking the “?” button, you can check the recording capabilities
of the selected sound card, i.e. information about the sound card driver and its
capabilities.
Info: Dialog for detailing sound card properties. If your sound card supports
24-bit recording, you can activate this recording mode via the info dialog.
Playback while recording: Simultaneous recording and playback is especially
important when wanting to monitor existing tracks while recording a new track.
This option allows you to turn the feature on. To conserve system resources
and keep the recording error free on slower systems, you may need to turn this
feature off.
File name / Browse: The name of the audio file to be produced and the pre-set
index path are displayed at the bottom of the recording window; both can be
changed by clicking "File" button.
Set CD track marker: While the recording is running, you can set track
markers by clicking "Set CD track marker" in the recording dialog.
