Recording Notes, Velocity, and Pitch Bend

Recording captures live note data from the keyboard or MIDI, plus pitch bend when available.

Detailed explanation
Recording captures live note data from the keyboard or MIDI, plus pitch bend when available.

To record a take, open the sequencer, select the track/group you want to write into, move the playhead to the desired start point, then press the Record button in the transport. Recording automatically starts playback if it is not already running.

Play notes from the computer keyboard or a connected MIDI controller while Record is active. AudioFlow creates a new recording region at the playhead, or continues writing into an existing region when the playhead is already inside one.

Press Record again, Pause, or Stop when the take is finished. Note starts, note ends, MIDI velocity, pitch bend, and supported parameter changes are saved into the recording region so they can be edited afterward.

Pitch bend appears in its own editable lane, allowing smooth transitions and expressive synth lines.

What to know
  • Select a track/group before pressing Record so AudioFlow knows where to write the take.
  • Recording works with the computer keyboard and external MIDI input.
  • Pitch bend can be captured with the recorded take.
  • Recorded data becomes part of the region so it moves with the arrangement.
