3. Enable all the digital returns on your StudioLive AI mixer.
4. In Capture 2, select the Auxiliary Stereo Track and arm it to record.
5. Bring the playback-cursor position to the beginning of the Session by clicking the
Return to Zero button in the transport.
6. Activate recording by clicking on the Record button in the transport; the playback
cursor will begin to move from left to right, and audio will play through each input
on the StudioLive AI mixer. The Auxiliary Stereo Track in Capture 2 will record a new
audio event, which is the main mix from the StudioLive AI mixer.
The new audio event that has been recorded from the StudioLive AI mixer will be
stored as a stereo WAV file at the sample rate to which the StudioLive AI mixer is set.
7.8.2 Exporting Your Final Mix to an Audio File
The most common physical medium on which recordings are published
is the audio CD. In order to put your final mix on an audio CD, the mix file
must be a 16-bit, 44.1 kHz WAV file. Once you have recorded your final
mix to the Auxiliary Stereo track in Capture 2, we recommend you export
the audio from the Auxiliary Stereo track to an audio file for this purpose.
See Section 7.6.2 for details on exporting audio tracks in Capture 2.
Once the correct audio file for your mix has been exported, you
may use any CD-burning application (including PreSonus Studio
One Professional) to put the mix on a recordable audio CD.
7.8.3 Mixing a Capture 2 Session in Studio One
Many users want to use Capture 2 strictly as a track-recording tool and will
mix and sweeten the recorded tracks later in a DAW. PreSonus has included a
copy of Studio One Artist with your StudioLive for this purpose. All versions of
Studio One can open Capture 2 Session files. All markers, edits, track names,
etc., will be preserved. No further effort is required; simply launch Studio
One and open your Capture 2 Session. See Section 8 for more details.
Power User Tip: StudioLive mix scenes are also compatible with Studio One 2.6 and later.
Opening a Capture session in Studio One that has a StudioLive mix scene saved with it will
load the StudioLive mix scene in the Studio One mixer. See Section 8.6 for more details.
