Loop Recording
recording lets you start recording and record as many takes as you like, all
in a single step.
SONAR loops between the loop start and loop end time, allowing you to
record one take on each pass. SONAR creates a clip for each take. You
have three choices for where these clips are stored:
• All clips can be recorded in Sound on Sound mode and stored in a
single track, where they are stacked on top of one another.
• All clips can be recorded in Overwrite mode in a single track, where
each take is successively muted except the last one.
• Each clip can be recorded to a different track. SONAR automatically
places each take into a new, empty track. No existing tracks are
changed in any way.
When you finish recording, you can use the Edit-Undo command or Ctrl+Z
to erase all your takes in a single step.
