Recording audio
Record audio in Edit View
You can record audio from a microphone or any device you can plug into the Line In port of a sound card. Before
recording, you may need to adjust the input signal to optimize signal-to-noise levels. (See either “Adjust levels for a
consumer sound card” on page 64 or the documentation for a professional card.)
1 Set audio inputs for Edit View. (See “Set audio inputs and outputs” on page 31.)
2 Do one of the following:
• Create a new file.
• Open an existing file to overwrite or append new audio, and place the start-time indicator where you want to start
recording.
3 In the Transport panel, click the Record button to begin recording. When you finish, click the Stop button .
To disable the Record button so that you don’t start recording accidentally, right-click the Record button, and choose
Disable Record Button. Repeat to reenable the button.
