Is there a loop recording mode for audio?
Lets say I am looping a four bar section of a song, and practicing the performance to be recorded by letting the loop play several times in a row.
Once I find the groove, is there a way to punch in without stopping the loop, similar to the way it works in midi? I can't sort out whether this is a loop record function or a quick punch function, or what. (newbie!) Thanks for any advice. |

well, i think what you are asking for is quick punch with loop recording? no, it seems to be one or the other. you can have it in quick punc and loop play till you're ready then punch it, but it stops record at the end of the loop point. at least i haven't found a way round this yet. Chris

thanks for the answer. i'll give that a shot.
in my old digital performer days, the loop record method would add another audio take or playlist with each addition loop pass once record was initiated. |

Loop Record.
MIDI does not require it, but audio does.

The poster wants to have loop playback, jam along for a while, then punch into loop record without stopping. Chris

Re: Is there a loop recording mode for audio?
As Chris said, I don't think both features in one is possible, but as a workaround:
Use Loop Record. So you record straight away. If you have looped several times and want to stop the loop and you don't want to keep the recording because there isn't any good material just press Apple+Period (numeric pad) - that stops the playback and discards the recording straight away. If you have looped several times and stop the loop, but only want to keep the last round. Consolidate the last loop and delete the long loop file. Hope this helps, Timothy |

Re: Is there a loop recording mode for audio?
It's currently not possible to automatically place each take into it's own playlist.
It's required to record at least half of the selection for the last take to stay, but if you hit stop too late you can of course just select the previous take.
