GETTING STARTED
2.2.5 Creating a Song
Now that you've configured your MIDI and Audio I/O and created a new Song, let's go
through some of the basics of Studio One Artist so you can start recording!
Creating Audio Tracks
Too begin recording, create an audio track, assign it to Input 1, and connect a microphone or
instrument to Channel 1 of your AudioBox USB. Select the record enable ( ) and monitor
( ) on your track in Studio One Artist. Turn up the Channel 1 gain knob on your AudioBox
USB while speaking/singing into the microphone or playing your instrument. You should see
the input meter in Studio One Artist react to the input. Adjust the gain so the input level is
near its maximum without clipping.
Turn the Mix knob on the front panel of your AudioBox USB to 12 o'clock. Connect a set of
headphones to your AudioBox's headphone output. You may also wish to connect monitors to
your interface's Main Outs. You are now ready to record. For complete instructions, please
consult the Studio One Reference Manual, which is located on your Studio One Artist
Installation DVD.
In the upper left corner of the Arrange window, you will
notice several buttons. The middle button is the Add Tracks
button. Click this button to bring up the Add Tracks
window.
In the Add Tracks window, you can select the number and
type of Tracks you'd like to create (Mono Audio, Stereo
Audio, Instrument, or Automation) and can customize the
name and the color.
Once you have added your Tracks, you can assign the input
by simply clicking on the input to which a Track is currently
assigned. This will bring up your inputs list. You can also
access the Audio I/O Setup from here.
If you would like to add a Track for each of the available
inputs and have the routing automatically assigned, simply
go to Track | Add Tracks for All Inputs.
