The Selection Clocks

-An image of the the selection and punch clocks in Ardour +
+ The range clocks +
+ The range clocks +
+

- The transport bar contains a set of 5 clocks that show the current - selection range and punch ranges. + The current selection range, as set with the Range Mode tool, + is displayed in these three clocks: start of the range, end of the range, and length.

- Clicking on the punch range clocks will locate to either the beginning or end of the punch range. - Similarly, clicking on the range clocks will locate to either the beginning - or end of the current selection. In this screen shot there is no current - selection range, so the selection clocks show an "off" state. + Clicking on the range clocks will locate to either the beginning or end of the punch range.

+

+ Right clicking on any of the clocks brings up a context menu + allowing to change the type of time display between the + 4 clock modes, and to copy the selected clock's time to the clipboard. +

+ The punch controls available in the main toolbar, work in conjunction with the + punch clocks, only visible while in Editor Mode. +

The In and Out buttons relate to the Punch range, and allow to use only one of the two punch boundaries, or both:

-
-
In only
Records from the In marker on, without a end boundary
-
Out only
Records untils the Out marker, without a beginning boundary
-
In only
Records only between the In and Out markers
-

- Right clicking on any of the 5 clocks brings up a context menu - allowing to change the type of time display between the - 4 clock modes, and to copy the selected clock's time to the clipboard. + The punch clocks can be controlled the same way as the range clocks (moving the playhead, + and changing the display mode). +

Recording mode

+ +

+ The Rec button affects how the tracks behave when recording: +

+ + + + + + +
Non-Layered OFF (default)Tracks in normal mode will record non-destructively — + new data is written to new files, and when overdubbing, new regions will be + layered on top of existing ones. This is the recommended mode for most workflows. +
Non-Layered ONTracks using non-layered mode will record non-destructively + — new data is written to new files, but when overdubbing, the existing + regions are trimmed so that there are no overlaps. This does not affect + the previously recorded audio data, and trimmed regions can be expanded + again at will. Non-layered mode can be very useful for spoken word material, + especially in combination with push/pull trimming. +
