Quickstart

When you have installed MAGIX audio studio generation

6, a soundcard and a Windows driver, make use of the fol-

lowing example to get to know the MAGIX audio studio

process.

Start the audio studio by double clicking the icon in the

start menu in the MAGIX directory.

The first recording

We will record two stereo tracks for our initial test.

Let’s assume that you are using an audio source like a mi-

crophone or a musical instrument. Connect this with the

help of the appropriate cable to the soundcard input.

Preliminary settings

First create a 4-track multi-track project. After the program

start you will see a dialogue in which you can select the

creation of a multi-track project. (If not, select the option

‘New multi-track project’ (VIP) in the file menu.)

This will open the dialogue window “Setup for a new VIP”.

– Now please enter the following settings:

– 4 tracks (you can use the menu “Edit at any time to ex-

tend the number of tracks in your arrangement)

– Sample rate: 44.1 kHz (for a CD quality recording).

MAGIX audio studio opens a new, empty project with four

stereo tracks.

The Project window can be enlarged to screen size by press-

ing the enter key.
