I am recording from an audio source and would like to do a timed record like the old sound forge days. This is just audio, no video, nothing hard. Just looking for a timed record feature in SFV.
If you want to record audio directly into Vegas at a specific time and for a specific duration, you might consider a keyboard macro program. I use RemoteKeys for this kinda stuff. It could press the buttons for whatever, whenever you want it to.
It's not letting you create a time selection larger than the default project length. To fix, create an empty event and move it out past the desired length.
The "Edit Details" window will let you type in a start time for that event directly.
