Lost the red playback/record cursor for recording
Please help. For some reason when I opened my Protools 11 yesterday my red cursor for recording vanished and I don't know how to get it back. If anyone knows how I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you so much!
2nd issue: Right now I just have the regular blue cursor so when I hit play or record, it starts there. Then when I hit Stop and hit play again it keeps going and doesn't restart at the original cursor location. |

Re: Lost the red playback/record cursor for recording
it is unclear what you are describing, can you post a screenshot. Make sure the track is record armed when you do that.

The first issue needs more explanation. And Darryl has that covered. What would help is some system info like what exact PT11 version do you have and what's your operating system? |

Re: Lost the red playback/record cursor for recording
I unfortunately cannot get a screenshot from my computer as I'm at work; however I found a screenshot from online.
Attached is a screenshot of what it looks like. There is a blue line between measures 13 and 17. This is where the playback starts however I used to have another line that was Red where recording would start, not playback. I can get you my PC and Protools specs this evening. |

Re: Lost the red playback/record cursor for recording
I'm not sure what happened to my previous I posted this morning so I'll try to explain it a little better below...
The red icon/cursor I referred to is the part where the track starts recording. The blue icon/cursor is where the playback starts. If you see my attached screenshot between measures 13 and 17 is the blue line. There should be a red line after that or somewhere there but it's no longer there. I'll try to update this thread tomorrow with my computer info and exact Protools version etc. |

Re: Lost the red playback/record cursor for recording
You were right as it was off to the side and I was able to get the red indicator back but now i don't have a preroll before it records.
My version is Protools 11.2.1 running on a Alienware Windows 7 home premium 64 bit laptop. Intel core i7 CPU @ 2.70 GHz. |
