Recording & punch-ins

Get a clean take down, or fix one line, without losing your place.

Steps

  1. 1

    Open a Studio session, choose the input on the track's fader, and arm the track.

  2. 2

    Press Record. Press Stop when you're done — the take is saved straight away.

  3. 3

    To fix part of a take, set the punch in and punch out points on the timeline, arm the track and press Record. Only the space between the two points is replaced.

  4. 4

    Punch-ins are saved the moment you stop. There is no keep-or-discard step — if you don't like it, press Undo and the previous audio comes back. Redo puts the punch back.

  5. 5

    Each punch shows as its own piece on the track, like a tape edit. Bounce the track when you want the pieces joined into one recording.

Tips

  • The app warns you if the input drops out, the level clips, or a recording is very long.
  • Record in Chrome or Brave. Privacy browsers like DuckDuckGo block the microphone without telling you.
  • With the desktop engine installed, recording runs through the engine for lower latency.

Troubleshooting

  • Nothing listed under the fader's input — allow microphone access in the browser, then arm the track again to refresh the list.
