Gimme short recording (3-2)
I believe the answer is:
tap-in
'gimme' is the definition.
(both can mean an easy shot eg in football)
'short recording' is the wordplay.
'short' means to remove the last letter.
'recording' becomes 'taping' (taping is a kind of recording).
'taping' with its final letter taken away is 'TAP-IN'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
