Automatic retake (automatically rewind)

Automatic retake mode is the easiest method of recording. Recording begins at the position displayed in the

Start box when you click the Record button ( ) and continues until you click the Stop button ( ). When you stop recording, the start position resets to the beginning of the take, allowing for immediate review and retake.

Note: Automatic retake is the default mode when recording into an empty data window or when recording with no data selected in the current data window.

Multiple takes creating Regions

Multiple takes creating Regions mode allows you to record several takes with each take defining a region in the Regions List. Recording begins at the position displayed in the Start box when you click the Record button ( ) and continues until you click the Stop button ( ). When you stop recording, the stop position becomes the start position for the next take, which can be recorded immediately. For more information, see Using the Regions List on page 104.

Multiple takes (no Regions)

Multiple takes (no Regions) mode also allows several takes to be recorded without these takes being defined as regions. Like the previous mode, recording starts at the position displayed in the Start box when you click the Record button ( ) and continues until you click the Stop button ( ). When you stop recording, the stop position becomes the start position for the next take, which can be recorded immediately.

Create a new window for each take

Create a new window for each take is similar to Multiple takes creating Regions, but creates a new data window for each take. This is useful when recording audio data in which you will save each take as an individual file.

Punch-In (record a specific length)

Punch-Inmode is used to record over a specific selection in an existing data window. Specifying Punch-Inactivates the Start, End, and Length boxes. Recording begins at the position displayed in the Start box when you click the Record button ( ) and continues until one of the following occurs:

•You click the Stop button ( ).

•The cursor in the data window reaches the position displayed in the End box.

•The length of the recorded data equals the value in the Length box.

Punch-Inmode makes it possible to record over a specific section of audio without the risk of affecting the remainder of the audio file. You can preview the punch-in region by clicking the Play button ( ).

Note: Punch-Inis the default mode when recording with a selection in the data window.
