Recording
In Nuendo Live, you can instantly start the recording on all tracks. If needed, you can also make detailed settings, such as specifying the file format, the record location, and the pre-record buffer length, excluding tracks from recording, or saving metadata and timecode information in the files.
Pre-Record Buffer
When you record-enable a track, all incoming audio is automatically recorded to a buffer. This allows you to recover the beginning of a performance, in case you have started recording too late.

Pre-Record Buffer

When you record-enable a track, all incoming audio is automatically recorded to a buffer. This allows you to recover the beginning of a performance, in case you have started recording too late.

For all record-enabled tracks, you can record and recover up to 60 seconds of audio.

You can set the size of the pre-record buffer via the Pre-Record Time parameter in the Audio System section of the Settings dialog.

To recover the pre-recorded audio, drag the event start border to the left.

Note

The pre-record function takes up RAM for every input. At high sample rates (such as 96 kHz, 192 kHz), this can exceed the memory available on your computer. As a general rule, a pre-record time of 1 minute takes up 8 MB per track at 48 kHz, and 16 MB at 96 kHz.
When recording more than 64 tracks, high pre-record settings can slow down the performance of the user interface.
