9.Click the Record 
button on the transport bar to start recording. MIDI messages from your controller are recorded as you play them.
•Notes are added to an event in the timeline.
•MIDI controller adjustments (such as pitch wheel and modulation wheel movements) are recorded as track envelopes. For more information, see MIDI controller automation on page 141. MIDI controllers are recorded in touch timeout mode: envelope points are created or edited when you change a control setting. When you stop adjusting the control, existing envelope points on the timeline are preserved.
MIDI controllers that are switches (such as a damper pedal) are always recorded in latched mode: envelope points are created when you change a control setting, and recording continues until you stop playback. When you stop adjusting the control, the control's current setting overwrites the existing envelope points.
When recording returns to the beginning of the loop region, existing MIDI controller envelopes are unaffected. For example, you could record note data the first time recording passes through the loop region, record
time, and modulation the third time.
Note: Envelope points are not thinned when recording MIDI controllers from a hardware device.
10.To stop recording, click the Record 
button again or click the Stop 
button on the transport bar.
