Creating a New Session
Record-Enabling an Audio Track
To record to an audio track, the track must be record-enabled,
or armed. Capture provides two Record Enable buttons for each
input: one on the track and one on the meter bridge.
To record-enable an audio track, click on either the Record
Enable button on the track or on the meter bridge.
Click on the Arm All button at the top of the Track
Column to record-enable every track at once.
Once an audio track is record enabled, you are ready to record audio to that track.
Setting Input Levels
Setting the proper input levels is critical to making a good live mix and
recording. Overloading the input will cause clipping (digital distortion),
which is particularily unpleasant and will ruin the recording. This
damage cannot be undone in software. There is a clip indicator for each
input on the StudioLive mixer and in Capture for this purpose.
If an input channel is not clipping on your StudioLive mixer,
you can be sure that there it will not clip in Capture.
Activating Recording in Capture
Once you have record-enabled the desired tracks, the next step is to record. To
activate recording, click on the Record button in the Transport. The Record button
will turn red and the Play button will turn green in the Transport; the Playback Cursor
will start to scroll from left to right from its current position; and a new Audio Event
will be recorded to any record-enabled tracks.
English
Recording will continue until you manually stop it by clicking on the Stop
button in the Transport or by pressing [Spacebar] on the keyboard.
