To Choose an Audio Input in the Console View
1. At the top of an audio track module, click the Input button.
A popup menu of audio drivers appears.
2. Select the audio driver for the sound card you want to record with from these
options:
• None—This choice ensures that you do not record to the track in question.
It also turns off input monitoring for this track.
• Left (name of your sound card)—Choose this if you want to record a mono
signal on the left channel of your sound card.
• Right (name of your sound card)—Choose this if you want to record a
mono signal on the right channel of your sound card.
• Stereo (name of your sound card)—Choose this if you want to record a
stereo signal.
If your sound card has more than one pair of inputs, a pair of numbers appears
after the name of each audio driver to indicate which pair of inputs the driver is
attached to.
To Choose a MIDI Input in the Console View
1. At the top of a MIDI track module, click the Input button.
A popup menu of MIDI channels appears.
2. Choose an input from the following:
• None—this option actually sets the Input field to Omni: with this setting
the track will record any MIDI input coming in on any enabled port (MIDI
interface input driver) on any channel.
• All Inputs-(MIDI Omni or MIDI ch 1-16)—with this setting the track
will record any MIDI input coming in on any enabled port (MIDI interface
input driver) on any channel, unless you choose a particular MIDI
channel instead of MIDI Omni. Then the track will only record input
that’s on the MIDI channel you chose.
•(name of MIDI input driver)-(MIDI Omni or MIDI ch 1-16)—
choosing this option causes the track to record any MIDI channel coming
from the named MIDI interface input driver, unless you choose a
particular MIDI channel instead of MIDI Omni. Then the track will only
record input that’s on the MIDI channel you chose, from the named input
driver.
• Preset—if you want to record multiple data from multiple ports and/or
channels, you need to select a preset collection of those ports and
channels. You can select one here (to create presets, see next line).
• Manage Presets—if you want to create or edit any preset collections of
input ports and channels, you can select this option (see “To Create or
Edit a Preset Input Configuration” on page 194).
