grannis Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 How many times have you armed a track for recording, hit record, then realised after that you forgot to disarm a track you armed earlier? Ok, it's usually recoverable, but it would be cooler to have an option to disarm previously-armed tracks - or at least warn you if you do the following... Arm a track, hit record. Arm another track, hit record. Chances are, in this scenario, you just forgot to disarm the earlier track - not that you planned to record to one track before, then record the next take to two. Would be great if CWbBL warned you in this scenario. If you arm a bunch of tracks without hitting record in between, you probably meant to do that - no warning.

Bruno de Souza Lino Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 You know what also would be great? CbB warning you when you press record without any tracks armed. Currently, nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Stanton Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) i just look at the big red button up top - if it's dimmed, nothing is armed, if it is lit up, then i have one or more tracks armed. in the latter case, i push it and it disarms all the tracks, on the other, if i press record and nothing happens, it's a "Doh!" moment and i try not to repeat it too many times before arming a track ?

Well, if your monitor is not wide enough, that module is collapsed by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckebaby Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Maybe its because i recorded for years on analog gear that didn't have an "Undo" button. But i never, ever do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
