Audio Not Recorded [solved]

[chrismeraz]

Hey guys,

I can't get my recorded signal on tape (or onto my HDD, I should say).

I have a signal on the meters (both in UAD Console and in Pro Tools). All tracks are record-enabled. However, when I hit the record button, I see no waveform, there are no audio files generated in the Audio Files folder, and I hear nothing when I try to play it back.

Do you have an idea where I might be messing up? I've made a lot of recordings in the past with this same gear, I've never come across the same problem...

Never heard of that happening before. Can you post a short video of what's happening?

I don't know how to make a video but I'll try! Hang on.

It's fixed.

So embarassing. I had acidentally created MIDI tracks, not audio tracks. Naturally, MIDI tracks don't record sound or waveforms...

Doh!
