Recording Dialog

In this dialog, you can make recording settings and start recording an audio file.

  • To open the Recording dialog, open the Audio Editor or the Audio Montage window, and on the transport bar, click Record.

Main Buttons

Record

Starts recording. Depending on the recording options, the Pause mode is activated.

Stop

Stops recording.

Discard

Stops recording and deletes anything recorded so far.

Settings

File to Create

Specify whether you want to record a temporary file to be saved later, or record to a file with a specific name and location.

Name

The name of the file to be written, without the path. When typing, all files in the selected folder that start with the same letters are displayed. To display all files in the selected folder, click the list icon.

Location

Specifies the folder where you want to save the recording.

Audio File Format

Opens the Audio File Format dialog, where you can specify the file format.

Meter Display

Settings

Opens the Level/Pan Meter Settings dialog, where you can customize the meter settings.

Reset

Resets the peak values.

Monitor

If this option is activated, the audio input is also sent to the output ports (not available if Windows MME drivers are used).

Mix with Playback

If this option is activated and the same audio ports are selected for monitoring and for playback (in the VST Audio Connections tab), the signals are mixed. If this is not activated, the monitoring signal has priority.

This allows you to toggle between the auditioning of the recorded signal and the playback signal, and to have full control over the monitor outputs.

Marker

Allows you to set markers during the recording.
