Upgrade Manual

Audio Menu

There is now an

Audio menu

, where all of the audio functions are found.

The

Record audio

function is used to Record Audio (using a microphone

plugged into your soundcard, or a guitar (optionally plugged into a mixer) and

then into the line-in on your soundcard. This launches the Record Audio Dialog

(discussed elsewhere).

The next 2 items (

Record audio and MIDI

) refer to the situation where you

want to simultaneously record an audio track (vocals etc.) as well as a MIDI

piano part. You can record the MIDI to the Melody or Soloist track.

The

Plugins

menu command refers to running a 'plugin' audio effect. This

applies an audio effect such as Reverb or Chorus to the already recorded audio

part. BB comes with a large selection of high quality audio effects built in –

The

Kill Entire Audio

menu item is used to erase the Audio Track.
