+\subsubsection{Recording Audio}
+At this point we'll make a a slight detour into full on audio recording. Getting
+audio out of MusE has already been covered in the previous chapters so we will
+concentrate on the additional steps needed to record onto an audio track.\\
+\\
+When MusE is first fired up, the
+output track has already been created (more about this in the chapter about 
+templates), to proceed with audio recording we need to add two additional tracks, a 
+wave track and an input track.\\
+When MusE is first started right click in an empty space on the track view
+\begin{figure}[htp]
+\centering \includegraphics[width=\screenshotwidth]
+{pics/main_window_add_track}
+\caption{Add track}
+\label{fig:Add track}
+\end{figure}
+and select \menu{Add Audio Input}. Right click again and also select 
+\menu{Add Wave Track}. Two additional tracks are now visible in the Arranger, 
+"Input 1" and "Track 1", bring up the mixer with \menu{F10} and you should see 
+the following configuration.
+\begin{figure}[htp]
+\centering \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{pics/mixer_with_one_input} 
+\caption{Mixer with one input}
+\label{fig:Mixer with one input}
+\end{figure}
+\\
+Note the buttons on each mixer strip. hover over them to see their 
+functionality. For more information on all the buttons see coming chapters 
+about the mixer. For now lets just do what we must.\\
+1. click on the stereo symbol over the slider to change the input to a mono track.\\
+2. do the same for the wave track (optional)\\
+3. click on the Mute (gray speaker) icon on the input track to unmute it.\\
+4. click on the input routing button (see the tooltip, it looks like a tele plug) 
+on the input track and select an appropriate connection from your system.\\
+5. click on the output routing button on the input track and select 
+\textbf{Track 1}\\
+\\
+Already after the meter on the input track should be able to display that there
+is incoming sound from your sound source. If there actually is sound coming 
+from your sound source, that is.\\
+We are now nearly ready to start recording. First we need to select a location
+to store the files. MusE does not use a centralized storage of soundfiles but
+uses the path of the song-file (extension .med) as guidance as to where the
+audio files should be placed. Now as it happens MusE will prohibit us from
+starting a recording until the songfile has been stored. So lets take advantage
+of this behaviour and just go ahead and try to record. Let's get started.\\
+In the mixer click on the red \textbf{record} dot on the Audio Track to arm it
+for recording (or enable if you will). Now when there is audio coming into the
+input it will also show up on the Audio Track. Also note that all the input and
+output routing buttons on the tracks now have the same gray color, this means
+that all of the tracks have a proper connection.
+\begin{figure}[htp]
+\centering \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{pics/mixer_with_one_input_buttons} 
+\caption{Mixer buttons}
+\label{fig:Mixer buttons}
+\end{figure}
+\\
+All fine and dandy. Now bring up the arranger window and find the round, red on
+white  \textbf{record} button and click on it. This is your queue to MusE to
+prepare for recording. However since we have not saved our song we are presented
+with a dialog to do just that.\\
+\begin{figure}[htp]
+\centering \includegraphics[width=0.6\textwidth]{pics/project_my_first_song} 
+\caption{Save song}
+\label{fig:Save song}
+\end{figure}
+Note the check box for creating a project folder, when working with audio this
+is very much recommended or you may soon loose track of what audio files belong
+to which song.\\
+Finally we are ready to start recording! The process is completed by clicking
+on the \textbf{Play} button in the Arranger. If all went well MusE then starts
+to record a wave file from the Input Track placed in your song directory.\\
+When you wish to stop recording press \textbf{Stop} in the Arranger, now the 
+resulting waveform should be visible in the Arranger. After rewinding the Play 
+position and pressing \textbf{Play} again the resulting sound should be audible
+through the connected output.
