Recording Audio Track on iPhone - Loop Function off - howto?

How can I record an ongoing Audio track without Garage Band overwriting my recording every 8 bars?
Is surely simple - I just can't find the function.
Thank you in advance.

You need to change the length of the song sections and turn on "automatic" for your recording, see this Help page: http://help.apple.com/garageband/ipad/2.0/index.html#chs3c3ef5dc
Change the length of a section
Open the song section controls and tap the section you want to change.
Tap the up or down arrow next to Manual to lengthen or shorten the section incrementally by bars. You can swipe vertically to change it in larger values.
If you want the section to match the length of your next recording (to the nearest bar), turn on Automatic before you record. This is especially useful when recording improvisations or longer parts. The Automatic option is available only for the last (rightmost) section in a song.
Tap anywhere in Tracks view to close the song section controls.
When you shorten a section, any regions extending past the end of the section are shortened. When you lengthen a section, all regions that extend from the beginning to the end of the section now loop to the new end of the section. A section can be any number of bars, and the overall song can be up to 320 bars long.

Using logic: recording audio tracks

Im fairly amateur at Logic. How do you guys setup your song (arrange window etc..) when you want to record your external hardware synths? Do you always record just the midi? What about when you want to record the actual audio?
I am trying to see if theres a cleaner more "logical" way of recording my songs. I know logic has a million ways of doing any one thing. I have read a few books on Logic, but almost every time the writer's studio is all virtual and hardly lends any good advice to a person who has many external synths they would like to record!
I have 8 analog inputs on my audio interface and I actually have 4 synths (I sequentially put them in 1,2,3,4(L/R..L/R.. and so on.) I can setup the plugins and internal synths like a pro. Im much less confident when introducing logic to my external hardware lol I wonder if most of us record one track at a time? I'm curious to how other musicians approach getting their hardware and logic structured for recording. I often find I am frustrated that I KNOW this isn't the right setup becuase I lose concentration on the most important thing - music. Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks

I have 3 outboard midi synths that I use. I found 2 good ways to monitor within logic
First way:
I have set up 3 stereo input objects in my environment, which represent 6 of the inputs on my 828. I have my synths audio outs connected to those inputs and routed through the input object to my main outs
I record the midi on midi tracks, Audio on audio tracks and VI’s on instrument tracks and mix everything together in logic. when it’s time for a final mix. I have to bounce in real time, you can’t bounce the inputs off line. but it works great. If I have a mdi part that I want to tweak more, I either record the part to audio for processing or I use my second method
second way:
I do it this way when I want to add more processing to a sound on an outboard synth. I take an audio instrument track and instead of the input being the ESX24 or other VI, you assign it’s input to “Eternal” which is like an input object. after you select the External plug, a box comes up where you select your synth, midi channel and output channel.
Then you record midi just like a midi track. But since you are now using an audio instrument track, all of Logic’s plug ins, like compressors and reverbs, and so on, are all available for your outboard synth just as they would be for a VI. Same rule applies for mix down, you have to mix down in real time.
Hope this give you some ideas

No output from recorded audio tracks, only midi tracks..please help

I've been working on a song in Garageband and suddenly lost audio from real instruments and can only hear the midi from last night until today. It consists of 3 midi tracks and 9 audio tracks. I have software plugins or FX on almost all 9 tracks with amplitube or similar. Things are slow as the arrow is red at the top, however last night I was able to still make changes - slowly. I was able to do a mixdown and export to mp3. Then I shut the computer down. Today I open up Garageband and can only hear the midi tracks of my song however other songs I have work totally fine. Nothing is muted and I've checked everything. Levels meters are moving on all the tracks, I can just feintly hear one guitar track. This is frustrating. I even tried locking half of the tracks and still nothing. I've rebooted etc and same
I'm running Lion with a TC Konnekt 8 sound module, on a 2.4 core duo 2 MBP with 4 GB of ram

I ran onyx and did a clean up etc then rebooted, loaded GB and same problems. I turned on the ducking thing, everything looked ok and then once I hit play everything worked again. I've turned off ducking and it still works. Could this be a glitch as I've never enabled it before

Adding Menue Audio Track selection and soubtitles on/off

Hi,
with some help from replies to other questions I managed to get a working DVD/BR with cool 2.0 / 5.1 sound and subtitles.
But for now I do have to select the audio track manually and also I do have to enable subtitles from the DVD/BR players menu.
So I wanted to add a DVD/BR menu where you can choose the audio track which should be played and to switch on and of subtitles.
I edited a nice PS PSD File with some buttons and they show up in Encore and I can do some "encore" editig like moving tham arrond or link to some other elements.
My question: How do I get e.g. the Button "2.0 Stereo" to select the stereo track and the button "5.1 Surround" to select the 5.1 track. An other button should switch on/off the right subtitle
Than I'd like to have a button which starts the video with the selected audio and if selected subtitle on.
At the end of the movie I like to be back in the menu.
I bet thats simple
I thought to create different timelines and add the audio/video/subtitle, but that i have a lot of timelines in all sort of combinations; e.g. video ON, 5.1 sound ON, subtitle OFF ..... video ON, 2.0 sound ON, subtitle ON etc ....
Thansk for any suggestion . and BIG thanks. Götz

Thanks for your posting, but there is the higlight Layer.
I opend the menue in photoshot once more and enabled the layers.
For me a button has the following different states:
Normal, no highlight,just "plain" text. e.g. "English Subtitle". in that state, the Subtitle is NOT selected/enabled.
Mouse Over, the highlight shows up, so you can see where you are with your mouse. e.g. "English Subtitle √"
Mouse left click, the highlight "sticks" to the menue item and when moving the mouse avay it is still highlighted, e.g. "English Subtitle √"
So I'd liked to indicate which audio track is enabled/selected and if subtitles are off or on.
I thought, the highlight button states are markend with (=1) & (=3) ....
BTW. in encore menue edit mode, if I click the show selected/activated Subpicture Highlight, the right layer shows up (with my √-symbol)
But in preview mode or on a burned dvd this did not work

Putting a single audio track on iphone

I want to occasionally put a single audio track on my iphone from my Windows 7 PC.
The original format will probably be mp3. (In some cases it might be wma.)
I want to be able to select a single track and convert it to whatever's easiest to allow me to put it on my iphone. Please note I don't use itunes for audio/music.
Can I do this without itunes? In any case, looking for specific steps as I'm only familiar with using Windows Media Player with an mp3 player.

Odd, tried to edit original post, but when I clicked save, it failed.
I think I found the answer... have to use itunes, apparently there's a way to browse to a single file and import just that one then have to sync it with the iphone somehow.
If that's wrong I welcome corrections. Thanks.

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.

SOUNDS LIKE a "PHASER" is ON WHEN RECORDING AUDIO TRACKS!!!

I've got logic pro 7 and am running on a mac book pro.
I opened a new blank project with one audio track.
I recorded guitar out of an amp on this track (using the macs internal mic,) with NO effects turned on. None on the amp and none in logic.
When I listen to the recording back it sounds like a phaser is turned on.
But when I play live and listen to it out of the amp it sounds fine.
Does anyone know what this could possibly be??
It is driving me crazy. Thanks.

Sounds to me like he may be hearing the internal Mic feeding back.
At first I was thinking the same thing, but if the internal mic was picking up feedback he would also be hearing that feedback, as he recorded. My impression is that it sounded OK to him while he recorded. Then again, maybe the amp is so loud he can only hear the amp, beacuse it's so much louder than the feedback. But if the amp is overwhelming the feedback from the perspective of his ears, then it's also probably overwhelming the feedback from the perspective of the mic. In other words, a hot level into the mic from the amp is probably a bigger problem than the mic picking up feedback.
I suppose both things could be happening.
Does it sound like an older late 1960's phaser with a diverse overtone series or a late 1980's phaser with the more focused sine wave generated audio signature?
Sometimes cool effects are discovered by accident. Someday someone will build a plugin designed to simulate the effect of putting your Mac's internal mic one inch from a huge stack cranked to eleven.

Cannot record audio track within timeline

I've opened the audio mixer in PP CS4 and can only successfully record a voice over if I move to outside the end of the timeline. Trying to record on an unused track where there are video tracks above results in nothing-no audio track is created.
What am i doing wrong?
Thx.

Once again, thank you to the most gracious advisor in these forums.
I will second that!

Can I record audio notes from iphone to cd

Can I record audio notes to cd from my iPhone?

Not direct from the iPhone, but audio notes can be synced with iTunes on your computer. You can burn your iPhone audio notes to a CD from your iTunes library on your computer as with any other music files in your iTunes library.

HT2375 Logic Pro 9 is playing back recorded audio tracks ahead of MIDI tracks

When recording audio all of a sudden, my playback of any recording is faster than the MIDI recording. My software instruments are on time, but audio or guitar play through audio is always just a step ahead when recorded through live input monitoring. I've reinstalled Logic Pro to try and fix it, and no change. Any ideas?

Hello there is no problem in audio recording delay
just check your pref ........ midi ......... sync ...... delay ( 0.0 ) ( Reset once again change the value and return it to zero ( 0 ) )
and please on the software monitoring .....

Add audio tracks to iphone using iCloud sync

This soulds like a 101 question, but I can't find an answer.
I have my iPhone/iPad synced to iCloud. I want to add audio recordings to the iPhone (language learning). If I connect to iTunes and select some tracks it says I can't sync them because I'm synced to iCloud. How do I get them on there? They came from a CD supplied with a book.

You can go to Settings > Music > iTunes Match and turn it off. Then, sync the phone from your Mac.
Note 1: "When enabling iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and then replaced with your music in iCloud."
Note 2: "Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device."

Playback and record Audio Tracks

Dear all,
Maybe a simpel question for you to help me out.
I use Logic Pro 8.
I recorded a song on track 1 and now i want to record vocals on Track 2
Can I play track 1 while recording vocals on track 2?
It doesn't work.
Thanks in advance!!!!

It works with me fine, because when I do Audio recording I use headphones so the microphone doesn't pick up what im saying/singing over and over again.
I always hear what I already have on Logic.
Maybe you have to change something in settings or preferences.

How do I fix a recorded audio track that is clipped?

HELP! I am new to Garageband and I ran into a problem last week while recording an audio message. When I began recording the audit message with Garageband I noticed that the input signal level was so high that it was constantly being clipped. I couldn't stop doing the recording so I continued to the end of the message. Now that I have the complete audio recording and it is clipped throughout the entire message is there anyway I can compress or dynamically adjust the range of the recording to either eliminate or reduce the clipping?
iBook Mac OS X (10.3.9)

It is kind of like recording on a junkie mic. Maybe you can improve the sound or remove artifacts but it will never be as good a rerecord on a decent setup. Digital clipping may be able to be fixed but I cannot believe the sound would be anywhere near decent, especially if you clipped non-stop. The Soundtrack Pro claim must be referring to small moments of clipping, not the entire track.

Track lost iPhone if turned off

Why is the iPhone 4 can be powered off when the phone is password protected? The find my phone is of very little use it a thief turns the phone off.

As soon as the phone is switched on again and logs into the mobile network, you can track it again, unless it has been restored.
Restoring and switching off the device can't be protected by a password.
But you can tell Apple about your wishes here: Apple - iPhone - Feedback

Recording Audio Track from MIDI

I am not sure how to record a midi track (drums mapped) so that it will bounce with the rest of the file. Also, how do I bounce for an aif file? Thanks a lot for any help!

What is the sound source for the midi drum track? (What instrument is actually making the drum sounds--a virtual instrument, midi sound module,etc.?)
