Don't like punch and roll? No, problem. Carry on using your own workflow. There are still lots of fantastic features that ReTake has to offer. You can still enjoy a full one screen, one window experience and use the convenience of having the DAW controls in the same script. You can also use Annotation Mode, add MIDI devices and make your experience hands-free. You can still use most of the other features too like Voice Follow, Error Highlight, GO TO Word in DAW from script and GO TO word in script from DAW, project timer, etc.
Don't have Studio One? Intergration with other DAWs is currently work in progress, with Reaper being next. Like and follow our social media pages to keep up to date. You can still use a lot of the features listed, such as Voice Follow, Error Highlight, word count, audio levels, etc but you will not be able to use the unique ReTake button, transport functions (play, record, etc), time elapsed, GO TO Word in DAW from script and GO TO word in script from DAW.
