Autodetect Keyboard
If the Recording options menu's Autodetect Keyboard option is active (this is the default setting) recording
MIDI tracks will respond to messages on all channels. This means that you won't have to worry about the
actual MIDI channel being used, it just works.
actual MIDI channel being used, it just works.
The Autodetect Keyboard feature will disable itself automatically if there are multiple recording MIDI tracks
and they're not all recording the same channel. This means that you won't have to turn it of in order to be
able to record two tracks using two keyboards.
You can turn Autodetect Keyboard off if data is coming in on multiple MIDI channels and you don't want to
record all of them.
4.4 Multiple Takes
It typically requires more than one take to get a track right. MultitrackStudio offers two ways to record
multiple takes:
l
Alternate Takes: a new file is created, the existing file is closed and the new one opened.
l
Partial Takes: the recording is recorded to a new file. When the transport is stopped the part is pasted
in the existing track. It appears as a tweakable edit, so you can move or resize the new part.
There are basically two approaches to multiple take recordings:
l
Use alternate takes and decide which parts to use afterwards ("track comping"):
Record some takes until you think all parts are played OK at least once. Then use the track's file
options menu to load the takes one by one to determine which is the best. Other takes can be loaded
options menu to load the takes one by one to determine which is the best. Other takes can be loaded
in new tracks via rightclicking them in the file options menu. Then the part you want to copy can be
dragged from the track's editor to the track containing the best take. Note that track comping using
partial takes is possible as well. Clicking one in the file options menu opens it in a new track.
l
Use partial or punch in takes and make all decisions immediately:
Record a full take, and then record partial takes over the weak parts. You can select the part first and
then record it (punch in recording), or you can record the part and then tweak the selected part in the

editor to only contain the part you want (partial take). If the new take is not successful you can use
the track editor's Undo button and try again.
4.5 Alternate Take
Using the Alternate Take option from the Recording Options menu, you can quickly create a new file and
set up the track for recording a new take of the last recorded track. This is what happens:
1. The last record Track's File Options Menu's Alternate Take option is executed.
2. The transport's position rewinds to the position the last recording started.
If you keep down the Ctrl key while clicking the Alternate Take menu item a new track will be created. This
