Multitrack recording (also known as multitracking or just tracking for short) is a method of sound recording that allows for the separate recording of multiple sound sources to create a cohesive whole.
Professional analogue recorders have 3 heads, one for reproduction, one for recording, and one for deleting. The latter is necessary in that recording on a ribbon which has previously been recorded could create a memory effect and prevent the new magnetization to take place properly.
Now we give an outline of some more units always present within a recording studio, giving for each one a short description (which is fully described in the relative section)
