the track is armed for recording. This is because ASIO recording drivers do not
support input level adjustment in software. To set the proper recording input
level, you’ll need to use either the input level on your audio hardware, or, if it
doesn’t have one, the output level control on an external preamp or channel strip.
If you don’t have any of these, stand further away from the microphone.
(Just kidding!)

RECORDING MULTIPLE TRACKS SIMULTANEOUSLY
Multiple tracks can be armed simultaneously if your sound device supports it. In this
way, you can record an entire band in real-time, with each input recording to a separate
track, allowing far greater flexibility at mix time. Remember that you’ll need to set the
record input individually for each track.

In this example, we’re using a FireStudio Project audio interface and would like to
record one mono track through the left channel input. To choose an input, click the
Arm arrow for track 1. Click on the name of the audio interface; in our case that will be
FireStudio Project, and choose Left Channel.

On the second track, we’ll record the right channel input. Click the Arm arrow on track

2, followed by the name of the audio interface, then choose Right Channel.

Both tracks are now armed for recording.
