Answers
A1:
With the use of an approved audio interface, you can record up to eight Real Instrument tracks and one Software Instrument track.
A2:
Monitoring input means that you can hear the instrument you're playing before and during recording.
A3:
Recording a Real Instrument using a cycle region will only record during the first pass. The second pass of the playhead in the cycle region will play back the newly recorded region.
A4:
You can hear different effects as you apply them to a track by playing the track in the Timeline and changing the instrument or effects in the Track Info pane while the track is playing.
A5:
Yes. You can save your effects settings as instruments in the Track Info pane and use them again on different tracks or projects.
