What is Multi-tracked Recording?
If you are recording yourself, one track at a time, then you want to do multi-tracked recording. You might lay down a drum or rhythm guitar track first. Then you would have your PC play back that track, while you simultaneously record (add) a new track, like lead guitar or vocals. The next time you play it back, you can then hear both parts (tracks) played together. It would sound as if you recorded them at the same time. Note that multi-tracked recording is not limited to singular tracks. It is possible to record 2 or more tracks in multi-tracked fashion. A singular track is often what the small home studio user will do, however.
