2 - Basic Multitrack Recording
This tutorial assumes you’re using a single input or pair of inputs. Sonar opens by
default with 1 audio track and 1 MIDI track.
1. Track 1 is an audio track. Locate
the input and output routing
fields in the Track Pane as shown
at right.
2. Select the input source by clicking
on the small triangle on the input
field. If you wish to record a mono signal on the Left input of the Tracker Pre
USB, select Left ASIO E-MU Tracker Pre|USB Mic In A. To record both inputs
in stereo select Stereo ASIO E-MU Tracker Pre|USB Analog In A.
3. The Input Echo button should be OFF. You will be monitoring the input
through the E-MU Tracker Pre.
4. Press the Direct Monitor button on your Tracker Pre. If you are recording a
mono track, set Direct Monitor to Mono by pressing the Direct Monitor
button again.
TIP . . .
If you don’t see meter
activity on the track after
enabling Record, check the
Input for the track. Make
sure you are selecting the
proper input source.
5. Press the Track Record Enable button for the track (see the diagram above).
The track turns a dull red color to indicate that it is record-enabled. You
should now see activity on the Track Input Meter when inputting a signal.
