Under Video and Audio I/O, make sure that Speaker Setup shows RODECaster Pro Stereo as the Device | |
If not already, click on the Fairlight tab on the bottom row to open the recording and mixing tab. | |
If you would like to expand the mixer to see all the tracks, hover between the timeline and mixer until your cursor changes, click and hold, then drag left and release when you are satisfied. | |
The tracks configured are as follows: Stereo Mix - This track records all inputs bellow as a stereo left and right. To select a track for recording, click on the "R" button to arm it. If audio is currently being fed to that source | |
With tracks armed, you can do a levels test and boost or lower any tracks you would like prior to recording | |
Once you are ready to start recording, press the record button. The playhead will start moving across the timeline and you will see waveforms being written on the tracks you have armed. Once you are done recording or would like to pause, press the stop button next to record or press the space bar. | |
When the recording is stopped, a wav file is created for every armed tracked. The mics will be recorded as single mono tracks where as 3.5, bluetooth, and sounds will be recorded as two mono tracks, one for left and one for right. | |
If you want to listen to the recordings on the monitors, you have a few options | |
Once you are done recording, you can start prepping for export. The first thing to take care of is clearing the unused tracks. Right click on any of the tracks and select "Delete Empty Tracks" This will clean up the timeline and make exporting easier. | |
Now go to the "Deliver" Page, denoted by the rocket ship | |
In the left panel, you will see Render Settings Side scroll to the end and select "Audio Only" | |
Your settings will be added to the render queue on the right. Click Render All to run the job | |
Once the job says complete, go to the folder you selected and located your files. They will look something like this. Depending on what you armed, you will have a selection of wav files. In regards to what was demonstrated in this wiki, there is a stereo mix of everything (A01), Mic 1 and Mic 2 (A02 and A03) and a bluetooth recording (A04). A01 and A04 are stereo clips, A02 and A03 are mono. |
