DELETE UNUSED RECORDINGS DURING SAVE OR ON EXIT

If this option is checked, Mixcraft delete any recordings made that are not currently on
any tracks during a project save or when the exiting the software. If recordings appear
to be disappearing from the recording folder, it may be because they weren’t part of the
project. To prevent these recordings from being deleted, uncheck this.

AUDIO TRACK DEFAULT RECORDING MODE

Choose from Takes, Overdub, or Replace mode.

INSTRUMENT TRACK DEFAULT RECORDING MODE

Choose from Takes, Overdub, or Replace mode.

WHEN RECORDING INPUT IS USED ON MORE THAN ONE TRACK

This instructs the software on how to handle two different tracks set to use the same
recording input.

The default is Do Not Allow Duplicate Recording Inputs. This routes the selected input
to the newly armed track and disarms previously armed tracks.

Allow Duplicate Recording Inputs allows any number of tracks to be armed; it’s possible
to accidentally record numerous independent tracks of the same thing, so be careful if
this option is chosen.

RECORDING FORMAT

Choose from uncompressed WAV or compressed OGG. OGG saves disk space if audio
quality does not have to be perfect. If OGG is selected, audio quality can be adjusted
with a slider (lower quality = smaller file sizes, higher quality = larger file sizes).

METRONOME
Clicking the Browse buttons allows customization of metronome sounds at the
beginning of each measure and for individual beat clicks respectively. Default and user
metronome sounds reside in the Program Files>Mixcraft folder.

METRONOME SOUND FILE (MEASURE)

The default measure tone is HighTone.wav. Click Browse to replace with a custom user
sound.

METRONOME SOUND FILE (BEAT)

The default measure tone is LowTone.wav. Click Browse to replace with a custom user
sound.

METRONOME VOLUME

Adjust the metronome volume to desired level with the horizontal slider.

You Down With OGG?
OGG is a lossy audio
compression format
that delivers better
sound quality than MP3
(we think, but this can
be debated on your
favorite audio forum)
and potentially saves
a lot of disk space. Its
full name is actually
“Ogg Vorbis”. We’re not
sure what that means,
but we're pretty sure its
creators watched a lot
of Star Trek.
