Set recording input gain and track volume

The current release uses manual level controls. This retained guide explains the controls available now, rather than promising the automatic gain feature described by its old URL.

This earlier page address is retained for existing links. The guide describes the current supported recording workflow.

Set the input before a take

Each selected recording source has a 0–300% gain control. Begin around 100%, speak or play a representative section and make a short recording to check the result.

Higher gain can make a quiet source louder, but it can also raise noise or distort loud peaks. Correct placement and a useful hardware level are still important.

Balance tracks after Stop

The separate source tracks let you change the listening balance without changing the other recordings. Use track volume, Mute and Solo to check the mix before export.

Keep the distinction clear

The recording input gain affects the signal being captured. Track volume affects the mix you hear and export afterwards. The current workflow does not include automatic gain control or voice-triggered start.

See choosing your recording sources for the full setup.
