Recording multiple takes
If Loop Playback is turned on for your project, playback will loop during recording and a take will be
created each time playback returns to the start of the loop region. The last take recorded is set as the active
take.
A region is created to indicate the beginning and ending of each take in the recorded file. These regions are
not part of your project, but are visible in the Trimmer Window.
For more information, see "Using the Trimmer" on page 150 and "Using Takes as Alternate Versions of
Events" on page 171.
Recording a new take for an audio event
