I've tried to record some audio in 2022, but I have encountered a problem whcih I've never experienced before. When recording a second audio take, your previous recording won't get muted.

To replicate:

1. Open / create a song
2. Click on "Record audio", use standard settings (see attached image)
3. Record some bars > Stop > OK Keep take
4. Press Play > Your audio will sound as expected
5. Repeat step 2 to record a second take.
6. Problem > The previous recording will sound while you're recording

I have tried with WAS, MME and ASIO drivers, but no luck, and "Overdub underlying audio" is un-checked.

Am I missing something? Can anyone replicate?


Hello Cerio,


This is working as you describe, and I think that it is working correctly and as intended, unless I'm missing something.

If you choose to "Take Again" at the end of recording, the recording is discarded and you do not hear it during your second take. If you choose to Keep Take, you'll hear the audio data if you record again. If you chose to keep the take and don't like it, you can click on the track | Track Actions | Erase. Alternatively, if you want to do a few takes and choose one later, you could mute the track and record to a Utility track. It is possible that it works slightly differently than 2020 and earlier in this respect. For one thing there weren't additional audio tracks to use.
