640 PLAYBACK MENU
Switch on the new recording tracks and activate monitoring.
These tracks are now active in "Input" mode, i.e. the input sound desired for recording will
be audible for these tracks. Recording begins at the play cursor position.
If you have selected a range behind the play cursor on the grid and marker bar and have
activated "Loop" mode, then recording will only begin at the loop start. Click the recording
button at the play cursor position and the track will signal that it is ready to record (the
recording button will blink during playback). Recording will only be activated once the start
of the range is reached, and the selected range will be recorded in "Loop" mode.
Record without playback (play monitoring)
If you begin recording in "Record without playback" mode, then recording will start at the
play cursor position when the record button is pressed. Initially, you will only hear the
track's input signal where you are currently working in "Record" mode. The play cursor will
not run in the timeline.
Now if playback is started from the position of the play cursor, all playback tracks will be
audible from this position. Recording continues independently until the "Record" button is
pressed again. The recording that was just made will now be visible as a new object in the
arranger.
Punch marker mode
This button activates "Punch marker" mode. "Punch in/out" is a recording process which
can be started and ended while playback is running.
Punch recording can be done in two ways:
Punch "On The Fly": This mode allows you to start the recording (punch in) and stop it
(punch out) at any time during playback. Multiple punch processes can be made in one
pass to improve different positions of a recording. Simply start playback with the space
bar. Click the "Record" button in the transport control to "punch in" and "punch out" as
much as you require.
Note: If you check "Prepare all tracks for Track Punch Record" in the "System Options ->
Record" menu, you will also be able to punch your recording by pressing the "R" buttons of
the individual audio tracks (see below).
