Chapter 9 Audio Window 363

Maximum Recording Time (Recommended): xxx Minutes

This parameter defines the maximum recording time for new audio files, in minutes;

this determines the size of the temporary recording file. Before any recording can take

place, a file large enough to hold it must be created on the hard disk.

You can switch this option off, which will create a record file with the size of all

available free space on the currently selected hard disk.

Disadvantages:

• the audio file may be heavily fragmented, if the actual recorded file is much shorter

than the pre-created recording file.

• if you are using DAE hardware, there may be no space left for the Overview file. The

Overview will then need to be calculated after the recording.

It is strongly recommended that you switch on this option, and set a maximum

recording time.

If there’s not enough storage space available to accommodate the time you have set,

the maximum length of the recording is temporarily reduced. During recording, the

Record float window (the one with the red bar) will display the remaining time.

Global Record Path/Song Record Path

The Global Record Path was available in earlier versions. It is stored in Preferences, and

applies to all songs. The advantage is that you don’t need to define a record path in

every new song before you can record, provided that you don’t mind recording files for

every song into the same folder.

The Song Record Path allows you to organize the audio recordings for each song into

its own folder. The advantage is that when you switch from one song to another, any

new recordings are automatically stored in the current song’s folder, without having to

switch the path manually.

Set

These buttons can be used to define the path for each separate hardware system and

the file name of the recording file. An incremental number is added to the name of

every new recording. You can create a new folder (if required) in the dialog box.

To the right, you will see the current volume, and the remaining capacity (if the volume

is registered). If you click-hold the volume, the entire path is displayed. This way you

can see exactly which folder you are recording into.

You can change the path and name whenever you want, via the Set Record Path

function.
