Re-recording

Acoustica makes it easy to re-record a time region if the first take wasn't successful.

  1. Click and drag along the waveform in the Clip Editor to select the time range you want to re-record.

    Select time range in clip editor

  2. Open the recording dialog box.

    Option 1: Select Audio > Record from the Menu bar.

    Option 2: Press the Ctrl/Cmd+R shortcut key combination.

    Option 3: Press the record button in the top bar, shown below. > Top bar record button

  3. You can use the pre-roll to let Acoustica playback the last couple of seconds prior to the selected time range:

    Re-recording

    With pre-roll enabled, Acoustica plays the selected number of seconds from the audio prior to the audio you want to replace. The actual recording starts immediately after the pre-roll time has elapsed. This makes it much simpler for e.g. voice over artists to synchronize their performance.

  4. Start the recording with the record button.

    Record button in dialong box

  5. Click the Overwrite button at the bottom of the Recording dialog box when the recording is done.

    If the recorded audio is longer than the selection to replace, Acoustica will ask you if you would like to crop the recorded audio to fit the selected time range.
