Audio Recording
To record audio, use any of the basic recording methods.
When you nish recording, an audio le is created in the Audio folder within the project folder.
In the Pool, an audio clip is created for the audio le, and an audio event that plays the whole clip
appears on the recording track. Finally, a waveform image is calculated for the audio event. If the
recording was very long, this may take a while.
NOTE
The waveform image is calculated and displayed during the actual recording process. This real-
time calculation uses some processing power. If your processor is slow or if you are working
on a CPU-intensive project, deactivate
Create Audio Images during Record in the Preferences
dialog (Record—Audio page).

Audio Record Modes
By selecting an Audio Record Mode, you decide what happens to your recording and to any
existing events on the track where you are recording. This is necessary because the tracks you
record on are not necessarily empty. There may be situations where you record over existing
events, especially in cycle mode.
●
To access the record modes, select Transport> Audio Record Mode.
You can also access the Audio Record Modes by clicking to the right of the audio symbol in
the Record Modes section on the Transport panel.
