Record First Explained: The Safety System for Live Shows
Record first explained in depth: how the recording becomes the master copy, how the stream follows behind, and why no stall or mistake reaches your file.
The short answer
Record first makes your PC’s recording the master copy and sends the stream a little behind it. A stall, a dropped link or a mistake that you cut never reaches the file, and viewers see a steady show.
