pro tools and microphone record thing
hello :)
question 1) when i try to record someone.. if pro tools are stopped and the record is enabled on the channel.. i can hear him... but when i press play (without record, with the record button enabled on channel), i can't hear him.. so i have to press record then play and then i hear him..... so... when someone enters the mic booth... i just want him to sing so i will take some levels before i record.... so any tip for playback and hear the microphone too without recording ? question 2) sometimes my loop stops working.. i just select an area and it doesnt loop.. it stops.. and i see some orange color markers style thing.... i dont understand why this stuff happens ? so i have to close the session then reopen it and then select a loop for loop it all over and it loops, BUT if i click on a waveform and press play.. i dont know if it loops it.. some stuff like this anyway. any tips? what do i need to click.. for just have my loop working fine again ? (i could find that if i searched.. i guess.. but i just didnt searched yet so i just thought to ask) i use digi 003 factory and pt 8 cs3 thanks all for ur replies peace |

Re: pro tools and microphone record thing
1) There are 2 different input monitoring modes: Input Only and Auto Input.. It sounds like you are in Input Only so switch to Auto Input..
2) Not sure what you mean. Your description is hopelessly confusing... Do you mean loop playback (when there is a loop icon on the play button on the transport)?

Re: pro tools and microphone record thing
1) if you dont have a mixer i would suggest sending the channel you're recording
via the sends to another AUX channel by bus and sending this channel to out 1-2 BUT put this channel on very low level so you won't get into phase issue. that way you have constant communication with the singer goodluck |

Re: pro tools and microphone record thing
Thanks for your replies! i will check out what u both said tommorow at studio.
flommer: yes, i mean loop playback. i have the play always on loop playback, but sometimes it just dont works, and some orange things like markers appears, must be some option, didnt searched much about this. Maybe it's something with the link timeline and edit selection button, but dunno, i will search it again when it happens again and stop loops. |
