Four Recording Modes
◆ In normal Non-destructive Record mode, audio is recorded
non-destructively, which means that if you record over a track’s
existing regions, the audio is not erased from your hard drive.
Both the new and old audio files remain on your hard drive,
available as regions from the Audio Regions List.
◆ In Destructive Record mode recording over existing regions
replaces the original audio permanently.
◆ Loop Record allows you to record take after take while the same
section of audio repeats.This is a convenient technique for
quickly recording multiple takes of a part without losing
spontaneity.
◆ QuickPunch allows you to instantaneously punch-in and out on
a record-enabled audio track, non-destructively, by clicking the
Tr ansport’s Record button.
