| Summary | 0006252: pre- & post recording | ||||
| Description | Especially for recording with punch ranges, it would be useful to have some pre- and post-recording. That way, users can precisely punch in regions without the risk of loosing an upbeat or a note that is a little bit to early. In other words, there would have to be a ring buffer per record-enabled track, that is always filled with the input of the corresponding track. When punching in, the ring buffers would be prepended to the corresponding regions that are being created. However, the resulting regions are of curse trimmed to the point where the punch in was. For punch out, the recording can simply stop later. Both functionalities - pre- and post-recording - should ideally be globally configurable in terms of if to enable them or not and how big the buffer should be (/how long the pre-/post-recording should be, in seconds). | ||||

"Especially for recording with punch ranges," ...this is not needed, as you could simply place the punch in point earlier (and the punch out point later). When punching in/starting recording manually a pre-recording buffer would possibly make more sense, IMHO. I can't see any use for a post-recording buffer at all, though. |

"...this is not needed, as you could simply place the punch in point earlier (and the punch out point later)." Well, I think this is workflow-dependent. It happens to me that I have a region that I want to replace, so I set the punch range from that region. The punch range then fits exactly the time window I want to record/replace. This is desirable because of two reasons: a) I do not have to trim the region start and end after every take to see how it fits in and b) the musician can hear it's track until the recording starts without being irritated because his track mutes a bar earlier. Especially a) is useful if you record a specific region over and over again.

The other place I know a post-record buffer might be useful is a recording function that automatically starts 1 second before someone starts singing/playing/talking and stops 1 second after the noise stops. Stopping one second after the beginning of silence can be realized without a post-record buffer, though. |

gunterkoenigsmann: since that function is not supported yet, I reported it here: http://tracker.ardour.org/view.php?id=6253 |
