Creating Parts
Parts are normally created in one of three ways:
• by recording (applies to Audio Parts, MIDI Parts and Drum Parts only, see the
Getting Started book).
• by direct creation of an empty Part.
• or by duplication of existing Parts (see Getting Started).
How Parts appear when you record
When you record on one Track the following rules apply:
• Recording from one point to another creates a Part that spans between
these two points.
• Recording again between the same points or within the Start and End
points of the existing Part creates
no
new Part.
The music is either added to (Overdub mode) or replaces (Replace mode) the
existing.
• If “Prerecord” in the Metronome dialog box is active, recording during
the Precount will extend the Part to the left.
For obvious reasons Parts are not extended beyond the Left Locator position
when you record in Cycle mode, or before Song Position 1.1.0.
• In other cases (like starting recording in an empty section of the Track,
recording over Parts and recording out of existing Parts into empty areas
of the Track), new Parts are only created where there wasn't any before.
As described above, the Overdub/Replace setting determines whether music
is being added to the existing, or replaces it.
An example might clarify this:
You have an existing Part starting at 3.1.0 and ending at 4.1.0.
You start the new recording
in Overdub mode at 2.1.0
and end at 9.1.0.
This creates a new Part starting at
2.1.0 and ending at 3.1.0...
...the old one between 3.1.0 and 4.1.0
is kept, but music gets added to it...
...and finally there is a new part created
between 4.1.0 and 9.1.0.
