SAM Voice-Tracking
From SpacialAudio
The voice-tracking feature is to allow you to record audio from a Microphone / Line-In (or any mixer input) into SAM Broadcaster and play it back at a later time.
Configuring The Voice-Tracking
Before starting to use the Voice-tracking feature, you will need to Config the settings of the Voice-tracking module.
Audio Devices:
- Sound capture device: This is the input sound card that you want to record from.
- Preview audio device: This is the output sound card that will play the audio for you.
Defaults (these can be manually changed per instance in the main window):
- Play X times and then Y: Play a track a number of times then either 'remove', 'erase' or keep the file ('none').
- Track type: The category of the song, ie : Interview, Promo, Jingle, etc.
- Save files to directory: Choose a directory to save items recorded in the Voice-tracking window.
Voice-tracking Main Buttons
Record: Clicking on Record will allow you to record a new voice-track or continue where it last left off on the file. The slider will allow you to slide where you wish to record over.
- Note: The maximum amount for a voice track is currently 5 minutes.
Edit:
- New VoiceTrack: Choosing this clear the current voice-track from the control and start a fresh one, ready to record on.
- Delete Before current position: When using the slider, you can make a point to where you wish to delete to.
- Delete After current position: When using the slider, you can make a point to where you wish to delete from.
- Clear: This will clear the current voice-track.
- Delete: This will delete the voice-track and the external file associated with it.
Play: Clicking on Play will play from the position of the slider.
Store:
- Quick queue: This will save the voice-track to a generic filename and place it in the queue.
- Store & Queue: This will allow you to give a personalized filename for the voice-track and place it in the queue.
- Store only: This will allow you to give a personalized filename for the voice-track.
Description: Entering a Description will give the file a title so SAM can search for the file when created.
Note: The current incarnation of Voice-tracking is basic and only records what is being sent to it, then when placed into the queue it is treated like any other song in the queue.
