Set the right level for what you're recording by tapping the ARM button โ€” INSTRUMENT, VOCAL, SOFT VOCAL, or PERCUSSION โ€” each tuned for that kind of source. Watch the per-track meters with 2-second peak hold so you always know your levels are clean. FIX IT AS YOU GO Punch in to re-record just part of a take โ€” the audio before and after is preserved with smooth crossfades. Undo and redo keep your last pass safe.
