Audio Engine - PRESONUS AudioBox Stereo Quick Start Manual

When dragging in effects from the browser onto tracks in the arrangement, hold [Alt]/[Option] to load
the effects as Event Effects instead of Insert Effects. Note that the drop target will change from the
entire track to specific events when doing this, as every event can have its own Event Effects.
When merging mono files to stereo in the browser using the [Right]/[Option]-click menu, the files will be
merged consecutively (first selected file becomes L channel, second becomes R channel) when the suffix
.L or .R is not found.

Pre-Record
Pre-Record is a global setting found in the Options/Advanced/Audio menu that allows any live input to
be recorded, audio or MIDI, while record is not running. This option is disengaged by default, and a
length up to a maximum of one minute can be specified.
The recorded data is collected in the input channels as long as physical inputs are connected. After
recording with Pre-Record enabled, you can reveal that data by pulling the event-start handle to the left.
If recording restarts on the same track, the Pre-Record data is limited to the last recording's end, so that
data is not repeated and a seamless join between the two recordings is possible.
This option can be a lifesaver. Let's say you started a punch-in late; no worries, you can drag the event-
start handle to the left, to a point before you where started recording. If you thought you were
recording but you were not, you could simply start recording, immediately stop recording (to create an
event), then size the new event back in time to reveal the pre-recorded audio.
Re-Record
Instrument Output, Bus, and ReWire channels can be selected as the input to any stereo Audio track.
These channels are grouped in branches in the input selection menu for the Audio track.
