Punch in/out Layering a new recording over only a specific portion of an existing audio file is called "punching in and out" (punch in/out). With the punch in/out technique, you do not need to record any portions of a song other than the part you want to record. It is useful, for example, when you want to add only a guitar solo or chorus at a climactic point. For all portions over which you do not need to layer a new recording, the original data will be recorded into a new file as is. This copying operation is called "dubbing." It is something similar to what some people call "dubbing" - copying a vinyl record to a cassette tape or CD-R. Therefore, punch in/out can be viewed as recording only the necessary parts while dubbing the entire song. Dubbing Original file A Overdubbing B Dubbing Overdubbing (Layered Recordings) 3.
