Recording Audio from an External MIDI
Instrument

You can record audio from an external MIDI in-
strument in one of two ways:

• By bussing audio from the output of the In-

strument (or Auxiliary Input) track used to
monitor the MIDI instrument to an audio
track for recording.

• By setting the audio track’s Audio Input Path

selector to the same Audio Input Path as the
Instrument (or Auxiliary Input) track used for
monitoring the external MIDI instrument.

This second method avoids any additional la-
tency associated with bussing. However, be sure
to mute the Instrument (or Auxiliary Input)
track used for monitoring while recording the
same audio path to the audio track.
