How can I record Audio while listening to another Audio Track?

I wanted to record a duo with both parts played by myself but I can't get Logic EXpress 8 to let me hear the previously recorded Audio track while recording the second Audio track. I do have an Edirol UA-25 and thought i had it set up to make that possible.
If any of you know the answer I would appreciate it greatly to have an answer to such a basic operation, or is Logic so far behind that I will HAVE to upgrade to Leopard and buy Protools?

Hello,
as far as i know, the advanced mode of the EA-25 requires you to install the original Edirol driver. The simple mode has basic core audio support, but the advanced mode allows MIDI and more than 44.1 kHz.
However, you shouldn't deselect Advanced, if it works okay - leave it on!
Just look if the "Digital in" switch is set to off, and set the small selector switch for the sample rate at the back to 44.1 kHz. With these settings, you should be able to play back and record at the same time. If not, the problem is not the UA-25.

  • How can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    how can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    First plug in some headphones.
    Then drop the karaoke song into garageband. You do this by just draging and dropping the song file into garageband or if the song is in itunes just use garagebands media browser.
    Now create another track (vocal track).
    Put headphones on hit record and sing.
    This is a bit over simplifed but give it a try someone will be here when you have more specific problems.

  • Can´t record audio track

    hi,
    I´m trying to record an audio track on logic express.
    the problem is: I have no record button on the side of the audio tracks.
    I set the the core audio driver as in/output on audio preferences. still do´nt work.
    I can import wav´s and I can hear them but I can´t record.
    Do I need an external USB Interface or is a driver missing? What might be wrong in my setup.
    please help!!! It drives me nuts.

    In the arrange window, there's a VIEW menu. Click on it and you can select which buttons, etc. you want to see.

  • How can I include audio tracks (to play on a Cd player)???

    I'm sure this is possible... but I wanted to add audio tracks to make the DVD play on a conventional cd player (but only the tracks i want to play)..... any suggestions?

    the laser of a CD player can't physically read DVD media. All professional cds with dvd tracks are created via the DualDisc method. One side cd, the other side DVD.
    The process is acheived at the replication house.
    This can be created via dvdsp by sending the replicator your dvd project and the audio cd and they sandwhich them so to speak.

  • How can I record audio playing on my ipad on my new macbook pro?

    I am using a music app on my ipad without "sound export" capabilities.  I want to record the sound using either a) another app on my ipad, or preferably b) by using the 1/8" port on my ipad to send the sound to be recorded via software on my macbook. 
    When trying the latter, I can't seem to get a signal.  I tried all sound settings, the software called LineIn and Audio Hijak, and still no luck :/. 
    Any ideas?

    You should be able to import photos using Image Capture (which is built in), iPhoto or Aperture. Are you using one of these programs without success? What happens when you try?
    If the camera and computer simply aren't connecting, you may want to consider getting a card reader (or, if you have the right MacBook Pro and the right card, using the one built into the MacBook Pro), then pop the memory card out of the camera and connect it directly to the computer. This is a better option anyway, since it does not drain the camera's battery to transfer the photos.

  • How can I 'join' audio tracks when importing audio book?

    HELP!!
    In the latest version of iTunes, 11.0.1, I can't find the 'JOIN Tracks' button which is needed when importing an audio CD to keep each disc treated as one book instead of storing each chapter as a separte entry.  Without this, I can't find a way to keep the chapters to play in proper order as each CD, starts with chapter 01. 
    Thank you for your help

    Join CD tracks
    When you import songs from a CD into iTunes, you can group songs so they always play together (even when you’re shuffling songs).
    Insert an audio CD into your computer’s CD or DVD drive, and click No in the window that appears.
    When the songs on the CD appear in the iTunes window, hold down the Shift key to select the ones you want to join.
    Click near the top-right of the iTunes window, and choose Join CD Tracks.

  • How can I record an Audio Instrument (saxophone) and listen to a reference track at the same time?

    How can I record an Audio Instrument, and listen to a reference track at the same time?

    Are you using an external audio controller or the line-in and headphone jacks on the side of your computer? You shouldn't have an issue using headphones when you're recording through the line-in but you may want to make sure you have monitoring on and it's going to the right place.
    If you're using an external audio controller, try making an aggregate device combining the controller and the "built-in output" into the same device. Go to Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup, click the "+" sign at the bottom left to make a new device and check the "use" boxes to the left of the physical devices you want to use as part of that aggregate device. That is how I use the computer's speakers or headphones to monitor my input as opposed to only being able to use the output on my audio controller.
    Now that I see some of the questions on the side of this page I realize that the 13" MBPs seem to have only one combined input/output jack... That is an incredibly stupid feature. What on Earth could possibly justify that design decision? I suppose if that's the problem you're having you'll have to buy some sort of splitter (if they even make them) or get an external audio controller like an Apogee Duet or something along those lines. I would be furious if they combined those two jacks on all of the MBPs.

  • How can I record an audio sound and convert it to a ringtone?

    How can I record an audio sound and convert it to a ringtone?

    Record your voice using iPhone (for ringtone only 35 secs or under are valid), sync iPhone with iTunes.
    In iTunes the recorded voice is listed under Music as some_numbers.m4a.
    Right click on the item and choose Create AAC version.
    Drag the converted voice onto the desktop.
    Delete the voice copy in iTunes. (important step)
    On desktop, rename the some_number.m4a to something_more_intelligent.m4r
    Drag it back to iTunes and you will find it under Tones.
    Now select it (for sync) and connect your iPhone, do a sync.
    If everything works out, it will be in Settings > Sounds > Ringtone.
    Now choose a contact you want to assign this ringtone, tap Edit and add the ringtone.
    Hope this helps.

    No. Preferably one records using direct input.
    Your comment  It doen’t matter whether he/she is recording the audio from the macbook or any external speakers because if the room is noisy than obviously the ambient room noise will be recorded.  is pretty silly really. Think about what you just wrote.

  • Can't record Audio while recording an Audio Instrument?

    Okay, so I never expected this to be a problem. I've just recently begun recording multiple tracks at the same time (all audio-only until this point). I'm sure there's a really simple solution to this, but I can't seem to find it.
    Today I wanted to record a few strums on my guitar and then play a few chords on the keyboard, going back and forth. I armed the track for the guitar (it will record by itself, by the way) and then armed the track for the keyboard (which will also record by itself). I hit record, did my thing, and the audio for the guitar just didn't record. All I had was MIDI.
    Both tracks appeared armed for recording.
    I had the Audio Instrument track currently selected, so I figured maybe it got priority. If I selected the Audio track though, the Audio Instrument track was no longer considered armed.
    Is this just something I can't do? Or maybe there's an option I can change for this in Preferences or something?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes. I'm 100% certain that I'm getting the signal from the guitar. The levels change as I strum both before and during recording.
    -If I have the guitar's track both selected and armed, it will record.
    -If I have the guitar track armed with a different audio track selected, it will record.
    -If I have the guitar track armed with an Audio Instrument track selected, only the Audio Instrument records.
    -I cannot arm both the guitar track and an Audio Instrument track with the guitar track selected, because as soon as I select the guitar track, the Audio Instrument track(s) become unarmed.
    This is not a matter of me getting no sound out of the recording- there is simply no recording. (And during recording, the little dialog box doesn't pop up to tell me that audio is recording.)
    It does seem simple enough, and yet it doesn't work. I can record multiple audio tracks, but for some reason once I throw a MIDI track into the mix I can't record audio simultaneously.
    I have no reason to believe this is anything other than Logic as I can record both separately (without altering the configuration of how I have things plugged into my computer at all). I just can't seem to do them together.
    Surely Logic can be used to record something like... MIDI keyboard and vocals simultaneously, right? This has to be a feature.
    If you don't quite get what my problem is, open Logic and test out the bullet points at the top of this message. That should help you understand.

  • !Can you record live while game playing with adobe audition? PLEASE HELP!

    Can you record live while game playing with adobe audition? I have a youtube channel and I want to record voice as I'm playing of course and cancel out the noise maybe put a nice effect on it.. But how do I do this? Please help! I only see ones for recording like after.. But I want to record it as it's happening is this possible!? it has to be. thanks *ADOBE AUDITION CC*

    That'll depend on the capabilities of the sound card/audio interface you're using.  If that interface can feed the right things to Audition, it can record it.  For just the game, look for "Wave Out" or "What U Hear" on the list of audio sources but not every system has this.  Also, if you want to record your own contributions as well as the game sound, that gets more complex too.
    I know that there are specialist pieces of software that are designed to record live gameplay (which don't rely simply on your local sound card).  I know of a couple called "Action!" and "XSplite" but I have not personal experience with either.
    However, before going that direction, check out the "Record Devices" menu in your sound system and see what it allows.

  • How can I separate audio and clips?

    How can I separate audio and clips?

    I guess you mean "audio and video clips".
    Then select the clip including both audio and video (while in the timeline) and press cmd-L: this unlinks the stereo pair from its video. If you want to work on each audio channel separately press alt-L while the stereo pair is selected.
