Possible to re-record a single album track?

While playing back a recently recorded album, I found there's a skip in one track on side 2 that I didn't notice while recording. Does VS provide a mechanism to record over a single track, or must I re-record the entire album side?

If the latter... I recorded both sides in a single file. Will I need to re-record the entire album?

Hi,

You can get away with just recording side 2, but not just the one track.  The procedure is:

1.  Truncate your existing recording, which you can do in the Cleanup Audio window (right-click on the waveform display and select 'Truncate Recording at Cursor').

2.  Re-record side 2 (as side 2).

3.  Touch up your track breaks before saving your tracks again.

If VinylStudio won't let you do #1 (not all recording formats can be truncated), you can adjust the track break markers to elide the unwanted audio.  Hold down the Alt key to drag them as a group.
