Record enable single track only...

this is a question i've been meaning to ask since L9! when i select a track to record to, and then go to another track, the original often is still in record-enable mode.how do i make it so that ONLY one track (the one i currently select) is the ONLY record-enabled track?
am sure i'm missing something obvious...

Ok here is a bit more info. I have not been home to investigate your possible soulutions but this may help. I am recording a a highlighted time frame of approximately 15 seconds. If i let the record go past the end of the highlighted region it starts over, doesnt stop, and keeps recording where the highlighted region begins. If i don't stop the cursor before the end of the highlighted region, the next time I record, the record enable on the track below it will be locked with it. Ive let it go over four times accidently so now there is a total of four tracks, all in order below the track that i want to record on, that are grooped. Booo....

Turning on "record-enabled" audio track in premiere pro 5.5.

I'm trying to do a simple voice-over in premiere pro 5.5. I've followed all the instructions given in the tutorials yet I keep getting a prompt saying " You can't record because one of your record-enabled tracks is turned off? I know i'm missing something simple but can't seem to determine what it could be. Does anyone know what it might be?

I think this might help the discussion. I also have auto input monitoring selected. I can also hear the audio when I click the input monitoring button.

No audio output on record enabled audio track

Hi guys,
Not sure whether anyone else has encountered this issue with Logic X. When recording using an audio track once the record enable button is selected I am able to see input but the input doesnt go to any output so I am unable to monitor what I want to record. Once I record I am able to hear what I have recorded on playback. The issue has nothing to do with my audio interface as it does the same thing with the built in audio and output.
This problem doesnt exist when using audio instruments and it seem to have just started randomly.
Please help!

Enable Mic Monitoring ONLY During Recording or Record-Enable Tracks

Is there any way to monitor the mic inputs only when you're recording? I know that you can disable the output of the mic to the speakers (or enable if you want), but is there any way to automatically do this only when you've record-enabled a track in a program such as Sonar or Adobe Audition? Thanks for the feedback!

which card you got ? and are you asking how to eliminate the feedback? well on my cards (x-fi and audigy 2, and li've 5.) i think you can do it with the bundled recorder that you get when you download the drivers from this site. I think creative recorder is the best one. Also creative mediasource should work (if you dont have Creative Recorder) just select recording source (which is your mic) In my opinion it does just as good of job as AA .5 (which I also own and use alot). I also believe I might have seen that option in AA, but it could be risky as it may interfere or conflict with your device. Only on my x-fi card have i noticed that it autmatically mutes the speakers while recording from mic (during Audio Creation Mode---I select Mic and select Monitor on Recording only) . Only other quick fix to it is simply press the mute key or my personal favorite use some earphones (not headphones cuz youll still get a little feedback at high volumes).Message Edited by djbonus on 06-07-2006 08: PM

Why are all the volume sliders resetting to zero when I enable recording on my tracks?

That's basically all there is to it. I have 8 drum tracks all set at different input levels but when I record-enable the tracks all the volume sliders rest to zero in the mixer. This has never happened before!

I'm having so much trouble with the audio levels in logic pro. It seems every VST has a completely different level when the volume on the vst is set to 100. Miroslav Philharmonik is EXTREMELY quiet..., and when I load drums into ultrabeat, they immediately peak like crazy.
It's one of a the reasons mixers have volume controls.
Seriously - an orchestral instrument is likely to have hundreds of parts all playing at once. If each part was designed to hit close to 0dB, then it would be impossible to do anything as the resultant mix would be massively loud - you'd have to turn everything down all the time.
Drums are probably going to be peaking fairly loud in a mix, as they do contain a lot of the energy.
There is no standard. A mono synth will often have hotter levels than a polysynth part, as the polysynth could be playing 8-32 voices all at once. Also, different patches, and different instruments themselves will be programmed to have different volume levels.
This is all true regardless of DAWs, and is nothing specifically to do with Logic.
All all the instruments, and mixer channels have volume controls, to let you control their volume and place them where they need to be for your needs.

Is there any way to record a stereo signal on to a single track?

In other words, I would like to be able to record a stereo single track (without multi tracking) such as a guitar ran through a stereo effects pedal, or two microphones through a mixer panned extreme left & right. Any way to do this with Garageband on one track? I've tried two separate interfaces, a Apogee Jam and a Sonoma Wireworks via the 30-pin connector and it plays back in mono. Just wondering if there's an app that would facilitate stereo on one track?

By definition a single track is monophonic. Stereo requires two tracks and two channels.
If you have recorded a single track of electric guitar, you could route that to a stereo effect and you would have a stereo sound but it would still require two channels for playback.

No sound on record enabled track

When I record enable an audio track the sound is ok, but if I push the play button then the sound on the record enabled track is muted. There is still input on the channel. If I try to record the tarck the sound is ok and even if I press the play button and then record enable the track the sound is ok. Any solutions?
I'm on logic pro 9.1.3 and I'm using RME fireface 800

Hi,
You need to push the "I" button on the channel strip.
This is the "INPUT" monitoring button.
If it is yellow, you will hear the live input all the time, including when playing back without recording.
You will however no longer listen to any pre-recorded audio on that track.
Cheers

Record enable light flashes and does not turn red

I have two input mics with which I wish to simultaneously record into garageband 10. I have selected the "record enable" button in the track header, and I have allocated each audio input to the appropriate audio interface channel. The record enable buttons only flash at me and do not allow for multitrack recording--that is, unless I have selected a single specific track which then allows the track to be armed for recording.

it always helps to give us complete information; to what did you set each track?

the flashing is normal. what happens when you record enable 2 tracks and begin recording?
i saw in another thread that you watched the multiple interfaces vid, perhaps the multi-track recording entry would be more appropriate:

Record enable light blinking

I'm trying to record two tracks and can't seem to get both enabled at one time. The record enable lights on the track header blink and I can only hear the track selected. What am I doing wrong?

Logic crashes any time I record enable. Also, it won't quit normally. I have force close the application any time I want to quit. What's wrong here?

From the moment I downloaded Logic it would not quit properly. It won't respond to cmd Q or going to the menu to quit the application. Then when I try to simply record enable a track, the whole thing bugs out and crashes, no matter how many times I restart, same result. This is not how $200 software should act. *** Apple?

This is an oddity that happens if you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard.
Follow the instructions from here.

Don't delete any more than they say in the article.
This should help/fix your situation.
You're right, Apple's software should not behave this way... however, a little background.
Apple purchased this software at version 5.2 from another company, a highly respected company, it's coast at that time was $999.00, which is what I paid for it, it's professional software. Apple priced it at $499 for several years, when it moved to the app store it was reduced to $199, which is dirt cheap. It's all a matter of perspective.
p.s. These are user forums, no one from Apple will respond here, or so they say!

How to adjust volume within a single track?

I have recently purchased Logic Express 9 as I moved from a PC to MAC.If i record a single track, such as vocals, is there any way I can adjust the volume level at different places on that single track? I was able to do this very easily in Acid Pro. All I see in Logic is the ability to increase or decrease the track volume as a whole. Thanks!

To add to the tips… Make your right tool the marquee tool in Logic. Now when you are in the vocal track and in automation mode, hold Command and you'll get the Marquee tool. Drag a box around the phrase you want to adjust, release command (returning to the pointer) and click on the selection. Now you'll have 4 nodes or handles. Drag the automation line up and down to taste. I manually "compress" all my vocal tracks with an automation pass using this trick.

Logic 7.2 White noise and hiss when record enabled trak using 002r

A stange thing in logic 7.2 that nor apple or digi design can fix. Any one seen this?
The config ( my belif is that all drives and programs are the latest and greatest.)
Macbook pro 2.6
0s 10.4.6
Logic 7.2.1
Protools LE 7.1.1
Digi core audio 7.1.1
When I record enable a track in logic (using digi core audio) I get a very loud white noise feed back. Muting the track does nothing. I can play out of the digi core audio all day long with other apps as well as logic. the problem is record spicific. Protools works great
I have wiped my computer and installed protools then logic with no luck.

Just to confirm, you have -not- installed the CoreAudio standalone driver -and- the one that installs with ProTools? This can certainly cause problems.

Record enable in GB X

Apparently record enable has to be on for one track always. The record enable button does not seem to switch it off for all tracks. Is that right, or am I missing something very basic, which wouldn't surprise me?

correct, it's not a toggle (radio button), you can record enable multiple tracks (you can click and drag to change the state of multiple tracks)

Record enable button disappeared Logic Pro X

I have been using Logic Pro X for several months without any problems but now the Record Enable Button has disappeared.
There is a space where it should be. If I choose "Hide Record Enable" the space disappears, but choosing "Show Record Enable" results in only a blank space where R used to be.
I have checked my hardware settings and my audio input appears like it should.
The problem is not appearing on my MacBook so I tried creating a new file and importing it to my desdtop Mac (Mini), but when I did this the Record Enable button promptly disappeared.

Well, yes.. but thats how you are meant to assign/select an Audio device in every version of Logic... going back several major versions now. You had to have done that in Logic Pro 8 or 9 in the past.. You probably just forgot you had to do so initially.
Anyhow...
The problem described in this thread was caused by incompatible drivers and a change made to LPX during an update...
...and was not caused by the OP failing to select the Audio interface correctly in audio prefs in the first place...
Cheers..
