The buffer captures up to 10000 MIDI events. This can amount to a MIDI recording of around 2
minutes and 30 seconds. However, if you use a keyboard that produces a large amount of MIDI
controller events, such as the ROLI Seaboard, this only corresponds to a recording of around 20
seconds.
NOTE
In the Preferences dialog (Record—MIDI page), you can specify a Retrospective Record Buffer
Size.
If the buffer is full, the MIDI events that were captured rst are replaced by the new events. MIDI
events in the buffer are also replaced in the following situations:
You have inserted the retrospective recording on a track, and you play new events in Stop
mode or during playback.
You play MIDI notes in Stop mode, and you do not play for more than 30 seconds, before
playing further MIDI events in Stop mode.
NOTE
You can also empty the buffer manually.
