saved. Give the layout a name, in the drop down menu that appears.

To use a saved layout, click the rightmost icon “Restore Layout” and select the name from the drop

Record button during recording

Press the red record button to start a trial recording. Press the same button to stop recording. The short

key for starting and stopping recording is ‘Ctrl+R’. All recorded and saved files will have the name of the

session, appended with a trial number (e.g. session = ’running_take’ will result in trial recordings

‘running_take-001.mvn’, ‘running_take-002.mvn’ etc.). When a recording has been made, the recorded

file automatically opens. This can be disabled in Options >Preferences >General >Recordings

>Automatically open MVN file after record ends.

9.2.1 Note for recording for MVN Awinda Users

When a recording is initialized in MVN Studio for MVN Awinda, the “Data” LED of the Awinda Station

becomes red, to indicate recording is in progress. Note that if data packets have been missed, retransmission

slots ensure that the Awinda Station can recall these and they can be retransmitted during recording

(retransmissions are activated only during recording).

When recording is stopped, the “Data” LED may become temporarily orange, and the record button in MVN

Studio will temporarily appear as if the recording is paused, the missed data packs are being flushed.

Note: This implies further that if the character does appear incorrect at another time, it is advised to carry out a

reset (as described in Section 9.1.3) to correct this.

When opening a recorded file with flushed data it will automatically start reprocessing. This will ensure that the

file contains all data, including retransmitted data from during the recording and data that was flushed from the

buffer of the MTw at the end of the recording. For this reason, the recorded data is often of better quality than

the real-time preview.

With MVN Awinda this button will continue even for a few seconds after recording is stopped, at this time, any

samples missed during real-time recording are being flushed to the PC.
