Instead of recording over existing audio clips, there is another way to nondestructively record new takes to the same track. Do this by creating a new playlist for the track, then record just as before.
Tracks can have multiple edit playlists, each of which stores a list of clips strung together in a particular order. Also, since playlists follow groups, duplicating or selecting alternate playlists for a track in an enabled group will affect all tracks in the group.
When a new playlist is created, its name replaces the track name. Names for new audio files and clips are based on the track name.
5 To start from the beginning of the session, click Return to Zero in the Transport.
6 Click Record in the Transport to arm Pro Tools for recording.
An audio file for the new take is written to disk and appears as an audio clip both in the track’s new playlist and in the Clip List.
Selecting a previous playlist from track’s Playlist selector recalls its clips as they previously appeared in the track. At any time, all clips from all playlists are available in the Clip List, and can be mixed and matched between playlists and tracks.
