    Pro Tools Recording techniques in this chapter
                      include:



   Strip Silence
   Beat Detective
   Grouping and Looping Regions
   Tick Based Regions
   Pro Tools 7 and Rex files
                Strip Silence
   Adjust the parameters to determine the size of
    the new Regions
   Strip Silence can get rid of unwanted low level
    audio such as headphone bleed on a vocal
    track.
   Extract feature can be used to capture room
    tone.
   Separate function allows you to slice up Regions
    Recycle style.
   Separated audio Regions can be Quantized or
    placed on a tick based track to re-BPM the
    audio.
             Beat Detective
   Groove extraction capabilities.
   Recycle type slicing action.
   Generate a Tempo Map to a track
    recorded without a click and work in Grid
    Mode.
   Conform or Quantize audio Regions after
    slicing.
   Selection based processing, the tighter the
    selection the better the results.
       Grouping and Looping
             Regions
   Grouping Regions allows you to control
    many different elements of your session
    as one unit.
   Grouped Regions still maintain their
    individual controls.
   Groups can be nested within other Groups
    allowing for incredible editing flexibility.
   Region Groups can be exported.
         Tick Based Regions
   Relative to Tempo, not Absolute
   Allow audio to be Quantized to either the
    Grid or to a Groove like MIDI.
   Audio can be imported to the Edit window
    by drag and drop from the Finder.
   Create a very flexible production
    environment by allowing tempo and meter
    changes at any point during composition.
     Pro Tools 7 and Rex files
   Rex files can change tempo without
    changing pitch
   Rex files can change pitch without
    changing tempo.
   Rex files can be imported into Pro Tools
    by drag and drop, from the Workspace
    Browser or through Import Audio.
   Ungrouped Rex files on a Tick Based
    Track offer maximum flexibility.
