Loop Record Mode

Pro Tools provides a loop recording mode. Loop recording

results in a multi-take file containing new regions for each

take. Takes (meaning regions or files with identical times)

can be selected for editing using Pro Tools Takes pop-up,

which speeds editing of instrumental overdubs, voice-overs,

Foley or other tracks.

To enable loop recording:

1 Press the LOOP REC switch located just above the primary

Transport switches. The Record switch in the Pro Tools

Transport window will display “L” when in loop record or

loop playback mode.

2 In Pro Tools Edit Window, select the desired range on the

target track which will constitute the loop.

3 Assign an input to the target track.

4 Press the track’s REC/RDY switch to place the track in

record ready mode.

5 Adjust input monitor level and panning using the faders

and data encoders.

6 Press the RECORD switch on the ProControl Transport. It

will turn red and begin to ﬂash. To Loop record MIDI only

(no audio), you need only arm the individual MIDI track to

be recorded and not the Pro Tools master Record switch.

7 Press PLAY to begin recording. If in Wait for Note, record-

ing will not begin until Pro Tools receives MIDI.

8 To stop recording, press STOP.

QuickPunch Recording

QuickPunch is essentially “punch-on-the-fly,” which gives

you the ability to instantaneously punch-in (initiate record-

ing) on a record-enabled audio track during playback and

then punch-out (exit recording) simply by clicking the

Transport Record button.

Refer to the Pro Tools Reference Guide for details on using

QuickPunch, QuickPunch Preferences, and Mute Frees

Voice.
