Chapter 2: Capture

2.2Audio Capture

When capturing audio, you have the choice of extracting music from a CD, or recording audio from a sound device.

If you are extracting audio from a CD, select the letter associated with the drive you plan to use. You can then preview the CD tracks with the standard playback controls (play, stop, rewind, etc.).

Use the Start and End markers (scissors) to trim the audio if you wish. Simply drag the marks to the desired spots.

If you are recording audio from a sound device, choose the device from the pull-down. The Format button lets you select the bit rate and other audio settings. The options available after clicking the Source button are dependent on your sound capture device.

When you're ready, click the Record button in the Player. You must then specify the file name for the soon-to-be recorded audio, along with the save location. If you want, you can have the audio automatically put into an album of your choice upon being recorded. Albums are discussed in more detail in Section 3.3

To stop recording, click the Stop button within the Player.

To play back your new recording, click the Playback button within the Player. Standard playback controls become available.
