Having a problem in Pro Tools when recording vocals
Hi,
I'm having a problem that I can't figure out what is wrong. When I record vocals in Pro Tools it "looks" like that it is being recording very loud, to the point of peaking, the thing is I could barely hear the vocals coming out of my headphones. While ago, I when I was playing back the vocals in Pro Tools I could hear a static very loud sounds when the vocals were playing back. I rebooted my computer, as of now I don't hear "static sounds" but I still can barely hear the vocals but it looks like that I recorded the vocals very loud. Thanks, |

Re: Having a problem in Pro Tools when recording vocals
clipping the meters or just the waveform looks big? there's an adjustment for the waveform size up on the top near the transport (icon of waveform with arrows on top/bottom). maybe it got adjusted...

Hi,
The waveform looks very big, the thing is I could barely hear the vocals. Meter looks OK. |

If it is just wave forms, you can hold shift/alt,, and use scroll wheel to make waves larger/smaller.

Re: Having a problem in Pro Tools when recording vocals
Maybe I didn't say what my problem I'm having correct.
The wave form is showing big, but when I record vocals, I can't hear them very well. Wave form is very big, but when vocals are being recorded normally the playback is very low. |

Do you have any plugins on the channel? if you have a compressor? you could be compressing it but not compensating with the output.

Re: Having a problem in Pro Tools when recording vocals
how much signal is going into the METER?
It is in the yellow when recording the vocals. Do you have any plugins on the channel? if you have a compressor? Nope, None. However, when I'm recording the vocals, through my headphones I could barely hear myself when recording the vocals. |
