16.2.3 Arming, Starting, and Stopping the Recording
The Start and Cancel buttons.
► Click Start to arm the recording.
After the recording has been armed, its behavior will depend on the recording mode you have
selected (via the MODE selector, see section ↑16.2.2, Selecting the Source and the Recording
Mode above):
▪ When recording in Sync mode:
◦ The recording will start at the next bar. Until then the Start button reads a flashing
Waiting label and the Waiting for the next bar… message appears in the information
bar above the waveform display.
◦ Once the recording has started, the audio is recorded for the duration set by the
LENGTH control (see section ↑16.2.2, Selecting the Source and the Recording Mode
above). You can also click Stop beforehand to stop the recording at the next bar, or
Cancel to cancel the recording (in that case the recorded audio will not be saved).
▪ When recording in Detect mode:
◦ The recording will start as soon as the input signal exceeds the THRESHOLD value.
Until then the Start button turns to a Waiting button and the Waiting for input… mes-
sage appears in the information bar above the waveform display. During this waiting
phase you can also start the recording manually by clicking the Waiting button or can-
cel the recording by clicking Cancel.
◦ Once the recording has started, click Stop to stop the recording (it stops immediately)
or Cancel to cancel the recording (the recorded audio will not be saved).
