Recorders
Using recorders with Pearl-2 or Pearl Mini, you can record multiple channels together in a single multi-
track file.
Recording multiple channels at the same time ensures that all your recordings start and stop at the same
time. After recording stops, you can automatically use one of the system's file synchronization methods to
copy the recordings off the server, or you can use our built-in tool to split the file into individual tracks for
post-processing.
For important considerations about file size limits when creating multiple recorders, see

We do not recommend using Recorders for manual (ad hoc) recordings to the Kaltura Content
Management System (CMS), see

Add a recorder
Each channel has its own built-in recorder which you access from the channel's Recording page. However,
if you want to record several channels simultaneously to a multi-track file, you need to add a recorder
using the Admin panel.
Each new recorder is automatically assigned a number, for example: Recorder 1, Recorder 2, etc. and is
set to record all configured channels by default.
