CHP. 11 RECORDING AUDIO
201
Preparing to record
Before you record, you must arm the tracks into which you will record the new audio. You must also select
the recording settings for the tracks. You have the additional options of using a metronome or turning off
playback during recording.
You may record into an empty track, a time selection, an event, or a combination of time and event
selection. You can also record multiple takes for an event so you can maintain multiple versions of an event
that you may play back and edit.
Tip:
Select a media bin before recording if you want to
automatically add your recorded audio to a media bin. To
save track effects with your recorded files, create an effects
package of the track effect settings and apply the chain to the
event as a non-real time event effect.
