![]() ![]() You see, I'm not a "seasoned recording musician" as you are. It is kind of refreshing to me that Reason omits something that is a relic from the past, while at the same time Reason had comping (as a much better alternative) before many other DAWs implemented it. Comping is a much better way to do replacement of recording parts. So, as a seasoned recording musician, I fail to see any need for punch in/out in the digital domain. However, in the digital domain so many things we did with analog multi-track, are now multitudes easier to do. From there, this functionality simply remained. From my perspective, other DAWs having punch in/out functionality is the result of the first DAWs imitating multi-track recorders from the past and simply implemented everything those had. I basically have never used punch in/out with DAWs, even though I do record manual keyboarding (I have played live gigs for decades). Comping is actually much easier from the perspective of the player, as punch in/out requires a perfect feel for timing (as you don't record anything outside the punch). Even back in the day, you could do comping with multi-track recorders, but that would eat-up your available track count, so the industry came up with punch in/out. The modern way to handle replacing small parts is comping. ![]() It is a relic from the past, invented to prevent the need for slice-editing real tape. I don't see why people think they need punch in/out. ![]()
