Learn the ‘punch and roll’ technique to save recording time

This is when you mark (‘punch in’) the point in your recorded audio where you made a mistake. The  DAW (Digital Audio Workstation recorder), then plays back a few seconds of you speaking before that point (the ‘pre roll’), at which moment it starts recording again. This enables you to make your correction and continue recording.

Doing this will speed up your editing and because you are picking up by hearing what came before, you are more likely to match your original read (tone, intonation, speed, accent and so on) and your re-record will be better.
