MIDI tracks default to recording all MIDI that is coming in through the active external input devices (see ‘The MIDI Ports List in the Preferences’). The Track In/Out Section in the Arrangement (Left) and Session View (Right).Īudio tracks default to recording a mono signal from external input 1 or 2.
(In the Arrangement View, unfold and resize the track in order to completely see the In/Out section.) For more information, please refer to Capturing MIDI (see ‘Capturing MIDI’).Ī track will record whatever input source is shown in its In/Out section, which appears when the View menu’s In/Out option is checked. This allows for more freedom and flexibility when you want to improvise or experiment. On MIDI tracks, it is possible to “capture” played material after you’ve played it, without the need to press the Record button beforehand. For these devices, you must therefore use either an audio interface with a preamp, or an external preamp. Also, keep in mind that devices such as microphones, guitars and turntables do not operate at line level, meaning that they will need to have their levels boosted before they can be recorded. For more on this, please see the built-in program lesson on setting up Audio Preferences. Note that this is a different kind of recording than the capturing of Session clips into the Arrangement (see ‘Recording Sessions into the Arrangement’).įor successful audio recording, please make sure the audio preferences are set up properly. Thus it would be necessary to rewrite the plug-in as an “Effect” rather than a “Generator”.This chapter is about recording new clips from audio and MIDI input signals. Unfortunately this is not quite straightforward either because Click Track has been written as a Generator, but Generators are not able to read audio from the selection. As many users probably don’t know what a “fully qualified file name” is, that would probably be asking too much of many users.Īn alternative approach that could be implemented is where the Click sound is read by the plug-in by selecting the desired sound in an audio track.
There is currently no provision for custom audio files to be used and it would be difficult to implement because Click Track is a “Nyquist Plug-in” and this type of plug-in has no facility for file browsing, thus specifying a file to use would require that the user enters a fully qualified file name to the file. The click sound can be further modified by adjusting the “Noise click resonance” and the “MIDI pitch number”. Click Track currently has a choice of three click types: ping, noise or tick.
