#PRO TOOLS RECORDING TAKES IN PLAYLIST PRO#
Playlists are a long-standing Pro Tools concept whereby each audio track plays back a 'list' of clips that are placed on the timeline. From the same menu you can also choose 'Expand Alternates to New Playlists (or Tracks)', which will only take those alternates that are available according to the filters you have set, and move them accordingly. So if, for example, you currently have a clip rated 2 selected, then tick the Clip Rating checkbox, only takes with the same rating will be listed when you go to choose alternate takes from either of the pop-up menus. Simply choose the one you want to hear or edit, and it will take the place of the current take. So how can you access them?Ĭommand-clicking with the Selector tool reveals the Takes pop up menu and unless any filters have been set up (see below) all takes recorded at this location are listed.

Unlike some other DAWs, in Pro Tools if you move that clip aside the other takes are not 'underneath'. When multiple takes are captured to the same playlist, either by loop recording or recording multiple passes, the most recent take is the one that is displayed and therefore played back.

In this article we shall look more closely at the management of takes you have captured on a single playlist, and also how to manage multiple playlists and use them for editing composite takes. In a previous article on the loop recording options in Pro Tools 10 we discussed how to record multiple takes to the same playlist, and then how to record each successive take to a new playlist.
