Arming Tracks

Tracks can be armed for recording by clicking the record button, either inside the track or inside its fader section in the channel or track inspector.

When tracks are armed for recording, they start listening for signals in their Entradas and these signals will be passed along in the processing chain.

For example, if an instrument track is armed for recording and it has a MIDI keyboard connected in its inputs, you will hear sound when you press a key on your MIDI keyboard.

Recording Audio & MIDI

After arming the tracks you want to record events into, enable recording in Controles de transporte and press play. Any signals received will be recorded inside new regions in the timeline.

Recording Automation

Automation can be recorded in latch mode or touch mode. The mode can be selected and toggled by clicking on it inside automation tracks.

Cierre

In latch mode, automation will be written constantly and overwrite previous automation.

Toca

In touch mode, automation will be written only when there are changes. When changes stop being received (after a short amount of time) automation will stop being written until a change is received again. This is useful for making minor changes to existing automation.

Nota

Unlike MIDI/audio recording, automation recording does not require Record to be enabled in the Controles de transporte.
