To hear track material up to the start point of
the loop, enable pre-roll and set the pre-roll time
(see “Setting Pre- and Post-Roll” on page 376).

Click Record in the Transport to arm Pro Tools
for recording.

Click Play to start recording.

ing, press Period (.) (Windows) or
Period (.) (Mac).

When finished, click Stop to stop recording.
If you stop recording before you reach the mid-
point of the loop, Pro Tools discards that take. If
you record more than half of the looped take,
Pro Tools leaves the take in the track when you
stop recording.
The recorded takes appear as regions in the Re-
gion List and are numbered sequentially. The
most recently recorded take appears in the ac-
tive playlist on the track. For details on audi-
tioning the different takes, see “Selecting Alter-
nate Takes” on page 383.
Loop Playback and Audio Recording
Pro Tools ignores Loop Playback when recording.
The only way to loop while recording is to en-
able Loop Record mode.
Automatically Create New
Playlists When Loop Recording
When loop recording, Pro Tools creates a single
file containing all recording passes where each
recording pass is a region in the file. On the
track, only the last recording pass is present as a
region in the main playlist. All other regions (re-
cording passes) are hidden and can only be re-
called as matching alternate regions (takes).
When enabled, the new
Automatically Create New
Playlists When Loop Recording
option in the Op-
eration Preferences page automatically copies
each region (take) to a new playlist in the track.
This facilitates using Playlists view for audition-
ing and selecting alternate takes.
To automatically create new playlists when loop
recording:
1
Choose
Setup > Preferences
and click the
Oper-
ation
tab.
2
In the Recording section, enable the
Automati-
cally Create New Playlists When Loop Recording
op-
tion.
Alternate Takes
When punch recording or loop recording,
Pro Tools creates matching alternate takes (re-
gions). Pro Tools lets you exchange regions in
the main playlist on tracks with matching alter-
nate regions from other playlists associated with
the same track, from other tracks, or from the
Region List. Matching alternate regions are re-
gions that meet certain criteria. For example, re-
gions that have the same
User Time Stamp
match.
For detailed information on working with
matching alternate regions, see “Matching
Alternate Regions” on page 540
