1. Display the controls of the track you recorded by clicking its Restore Strip Size button , or by

It’s almost as easy to listen to your performance on your MIDI instrument. For instructions on how to
play a track on a MIDI keyboard, refer to Tutorial 1.
The Piano Roll, Staff, and Event List views all show the same basic information—the notes that you
recorded. The Piano Roll view displays the track as a player-piano roll. The Staff view shows notes in
traditional music notation. The Event List view lists all MIDI events for the track. When you need to
edit a track, you can work in any of these views. On different occasions you may have reason to use
different views. More information about the Piano Roll, Staff, and Event List views can be found in later
chapters of this manual or in the online help.
When you're ready to continue, close the Piano Roll, Staff, and Event List views.
Recording Another Take
Maybe your first attempt at recording resulted in a perfect performance, but maybe not. If you'd like to
remove your first take and try again, do the following:
1. Choose Edit-Undo Recording or press Ctrl+Z to undo your recording.
2. Click Rewind , or press w . The track is still armed for recording, so you don't need to re-arm it.
3. Click Record , or press r .
4. When you finish recording, click the Stop button in the Transport toolbar or press the Spacebar.
Alternatively, you could record your next attempt on a new track. That way you can keep all the takes
and select the best one later (or combine the best parts of each!). If you record on a new track, be sure to
arm the new track for recording and to disarm the previous track. See “Loop Recording” on page 68 for
a convenient way to record multiple takes.
Saving Your Work
When you have something you’d like to keep, you can save the project by doing the following:
1. Choose File-Save As .
2. In the File Name box, type a new file name, such as my project .
