Input channel notes

  • All Channels averages the available input channels into one mono recording.
  • If a class-compliant USB interface exposes multiple channels, choose one from the AUDIO tab before recording.
  • If an interface is reconnected or the route changes, reopen AUDIO and confirm the active input, output, channel, and level before recording.
  • Loop capture and sample recording are separate. Stop loop capture before recording a new sample.
  • Sample input recording is available only in standalone TEMPO-1.
  • To move a standalone sample into AUv3, save it in a user preset, Export Bank in standalone, then Import Bank in AUv3.
