Imagine a guitar solo being performed and recorded multiple times over the same section
of a project. The first recording appears as a single take region on the selected arrange
track—just like recording a single audio take. When a recording takes place over this
existing audio region, a take folder is created—occupying a single audio arrange
track—and both regions are added to this folder. Each subsequent recording over the
same section is added to the take folder. At the top of the take folder appears a composite
of the sections of take regions, which represent a combination of the multiple
takes—usually the best performances that can be used as the final version of your take.
