Undoubtedly, a performer surely needs a beat or two to guide them into sync. Orchestra conductors, tapping drumsticks, and click-tracks provide such cues in concert halls, stage and recording studio.

Try the following. While it’s a little more effort to establish than a pre-count function, these tactics will give you those cues:

  1. Playhead launches ahead of Punch In.
  2. Loop range starts before Punch In – for multi-take recordings.
  3. Record the lead-in.
    This is probably most advisable. You can trim and fade the take afterwards.
    This method ensures the inclusion of sound played, fractionally, ahead of the first beat.

    • e.g. You might want to capture the sound of a saxophone’s mechanism when keys are pressed, which occurs before a note is blown (on beat).
