Unable to record audio

[musicman1985]

Hello everyone,
I am using Pro Tools Intro on MacOs Monterey and when I try to record an audio track I get the annoying message "Unable to create record files for one or more tracks. Check your disk allocation and drive permissions." If anybody knows what to do I would be thankful. I already granted full disk permission to pro tools.

As the error message states, you need to make sure the correct path is set in the Disk Allocation tab within the setup menu.

Set it to wherever you want to record to and carry on. If its set to an external drive and thats not mounted, thats more than likely your problem.

Does this mean I can't use Pro Tools?

Have you found a way to record audio? You can try checking your disk allocation and drive permissions, as the error message suggests. I am waiting for your reply, and I am here to let you know that there is an online essay maker available for us to fix all our problems, I found this https://essay-maker.online, and because I want to hire an essay writer, when I found it, after that I will come back here and will read your answers. And thanks a lot for sharing the issues which you were facing.

Go to workspace and set your external drive to record mode.

No. Thats not what it means.

I’m not sure how to explain it simpler than I have. There is a disk allocation setting in Pro Tools and you need to make sure it is set to the correct drive you’re trying to record to.

Perhaps this will spell it out clearer for you?

Step 1. If it's a newly purchased external drive, always make sure it's formatted correctly. If it's not, do that first using Disk Utility. see Avid's instructions : https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...with-Pro-Tools


or, when you write :

do you mean you're booting from an external SSD ? and you're also trying to use that boot drive as a Record Volume on the top-level of the drive (as opposed to creating a session on the current user/desktop) ?

[musicman1985]

Yes I'm booting from external ssd (apfs). I checked all the permissions for disk allocation . I searched for similar topics and someone stated that it works only with internal hard drive. Thanks anyway.
