It is possible to record multiple tracks without touching the record controls. Plato has
automatic silence detection which, combined with the track detection algorithms, mean it is
able to accurately determine when one track stops and another begins. Plato looks at
collections of tracks in order to accurately determine which album is playing. So, to record an
album, simply cue up the record, start the recording and stop once both sides of the album
have finished playing through the system. Plato will then generate a fully tagged FLAC file for
each track on the album.
