Muting the microphone during a recording
While recording with the microphone, you can mute sections you do not want to keep as sound. Switch back to capture the rest of your playing without stopping the take.
If your screens look different from this guide, update the app to the latest version.
Mute and unmute
- Start a microphone recording. Its status is Microphone: recording.
- Press Mute microphone. Once it changes, you will see Microphone: muted and a crossed-out microphone icon.
- Press Unmute microphone to capture sound again.
You can switch more than once during the same take. Wait for Changing microphone… to finish before switching again.
What stays in a muted section
Muted sections become silence. The clock, drill intervals and that section's length in the audio remain. Muting for 30 seconds leaves 30 seconds of silence. It does not pause recording or remove that span.
The device still uses the microphone while muted. The operating system's microphone indicator may remain visible. This also does not silence your device's speakers.
Stopping and the next recording
You can press Stop and save normally while muted. Every new recording starts with the microphone enabled.
MIDI recording does not use the microphone, so it has no mute button. This feature does not record microphone and MIDI together.
If switching fails
If you see "Could not change the microphone. Please try again.", the previous state stays active. Check the status on screen and try again. After stopping and saving, listen back to check that the sound you wanted is there.
