Here's the problem:
I have recorded a simple backing track on Pro Tools SE. I now want to play along with that backing track (looped) without recording what I am playing.
So I record enable the track and hit play. However, when I hit play I can no longer hear what I am playing, just the backing track. If I stop the track, I can hear myself playing again, but not the backing track. One solution is to hit 'direct monitor' on the Avid recording studio, but this requires changing the input volume of the guitar and it loses the amp synth.
I have tried toggling 'k'. This does not fix the problem.
I'd be grateful for any help that you can offer. My 'Sandra' report is below so that you can see what computer I am using.
Best wishes
