5 To specify other voiceover settings, click the Advanced disclosure triangle and do any of the

following:

•

To change the input device or the number of input channels (mono or stereo): Choose an option

from the Input pop-up menu. The default choice of System Setting uses the rst channel of

the input device currently selected in OS X Sound preferences.

Tip: If you always want to record with a particular device or a particular channel on a

multichannel audio device, choose that device/channel pair from the Input pop-up menu

instead of System Setting. Final Cut Pro remembers the setting and indicates in the Input

pop-up menu whether the device is available.

•

To listen to your microphone input as you record: Set Monitor to On. The microphone audio plays

from the output device currently selected in OS X Sound preferences. There is no input signal

when monitoring is o.

Tip: To listen to a live mix of both microphone and project audio, set Monitor to On and

deselect the “Mute project while recording” checkbox below.

•

To adjust the monitoring level: Drag the Gain slider right to increase the monitoring level, or left

to decrease it (or type a dB value in the Gain eld).

Note: If the built-in microphone is selected, the Gain slider automatically resets to zero to

prevent feedback from the built-in speakers when monitoring is turned on. To avoid feedback,

use headphones or external speakers placed away from the microphone.

•

To turn o the automatic countdown before recording: Deselect the “Countdown to record”

checkbox.

•

To unmute project audio while recording: Deselect the “Mute project while recording” checkbox.

•

To turn o automatic grouping of multiple voiceover takes into auditions: Deselect the “Create

Audition from takes” checkbox.

•

To change where the recording is saved: Choose an event in the current library from the Event

pop-up menu.

6 To start recording, click the Record button (or press Option-Shift-A).

7 To stop recording, click the Record button (or press the Space bar or Option-Shift-A).

Your audio recordings are attached to the primary storyline at the playhead position.
