To record: Set the recording device and input source, adjust the input level, then press the red Record button.

  1. Set Recording Device either in the Devices tab of Preferences or in the Device Toolbar.
  2. Set input source for that device (for example, microphone or line-in) at Recording in the Devices tab of Preferences or in the Device Toolbar.
  3. Adjust input level using the right-hand slider on the Mixer Toolbar. Correct adjustment of level before recording is essential to avoid noise or distortion.
