To get the original recording back just delete the new event. This means that you haven't destroyed the original recording. This punch in process adds a new event that lays over the top of the existing event and holds the newly recorded clip. Stop playback when you are done with the punch in. Hit the record button just before she sings the phrase that you are punching in, and click the record button again when you want to punch back out. That'll give her two measures of pre-roll so that she can get her bearings in the song and before she has to sing the phrase. The phrase we want to replace starts during measure 18 so there's no reason to play through the entire song.Ĭlick in a blank area of the timeline at measure 16 to place the cursor, you'll start playback from there. Let's say you're not happy with the way she sang the first "can we take anymore", rather than re-record the entire vocal track again let's use Punch In techniques to fix just the phrase that you don't like. When you are done recording, name the file Vocals in A. Once you and the vocalist are all set click the Record button, and record her vocals in the key of A. Now you're ready to bring your vocalist back in to re-record her part.Ĭlick the arm for Record button in the vocals track and repeat the process of setting your record levels properly.
