Undo or Cancel Audio Recording
Once you've recorded an audio track and the
transport is stopped, you can undo the previous
record take.
To undo an audio recording:
■ Once the Transport has been stopped, choose
Edit > Undo Record Audio.
The track’s playlist is restored to its previous
state, and the following material is discarded:
◆ When in Loop Record mode, all takes from
each record pass are discarded.
◆ When using TrackPunch or QuickPunch
mode, all punches from the last recording pass
are discarded.
Canceling a Record Take
While recording, it is possible to discard the cur-
rent record take. This removes the audio (re-
corded up to that point) from your hard drive
and deletes the region from the track’s playlist.
This capability is not available in Destructive
Record mode.
To cancel a record take while recording:
■ Press Control+period (Windows) or Com-
mand+period (Macintosh) before the Transport
is stopped.
When using Loop Record mode, all takes from
each record pass are discarded.
If Auto Input Monitoring is enabled, you
can click the Record button in the Transport
window to exit Record Ready mode, then
press Play, leaving the track record enabled.
The track automatically switches to Play-
back mode when you press play, then back
to Input mode when you stop. See “Auto In-
put Monitoring” on page 140.
If you undo a record pass during recording,
Pro Tools will remove any previously undone
record pass from the session, and gives you
the option of deleting the previous record pass
from your hard drive.
