Overview

RX supports recording up to two channels at a time.

To record in the RX 8 Audio Editor:

  • Create a new file.
  • Press the Record button once to arm recording. The Record button will flash red when RX is armed to record. The meters to the right of the transport controls will update based on your input signal when recording is armed.
  • Before recording, you should ensure that your input levels are not clipping and allow for adequate headroom. Alternatively, you can enable input monitoring to set input levels without engaging record arm.
  • After adjusting your input levels, you can start recording by clicking the Record button again. When RX is recording, the Record button will display as solid red.
  • You can stop recording by clicking the Record button again.
  • After you have stopped recording you can edit and apply processing to the file.
  • RX 8 Session Data Folder

    After recording, your recorded audio data is stored in the RX 8 Session Data folder. You can set the location of the RX Session Data folder in Preferences > Misc tab. If you use the recording functionality in the RX Audio Editor often, it is recommended that the RX Session Data folder be located on a drive with a sufficient amount of free space.

    Troubleshooting

    If you are having trouble recording in RX, try the following steps:

  • Enable Input Monitoring and look for activity on RX’s level meters.
  • Close other audio applications, DAWs and NLEs open on your computer to make sure no other program is usurping the sound card.
  • Open Preferences > Audio and make sure the correct device is listed in Input Device. Also check in the Channel Routing dialog to make sure the correct inputs are selected.
  • Check your input source. Make sure the hardware connections between whatever you’re recording from and the inputs on your audio interface are correct.
