Cubase can automatically switch from playback to recording at a given position. This is useful if you must replace a section of a recording and want to listen to what is already recorded up to the recording start position.
Procedure
- Set the left locator to the position where you want to start recording.
- Activate Punch In on the Transport panel.
- Activate playback from any position before the left locator.
Result
When the project cursor reaches the left locator, recording is automatically activated.
