Re: Waveform too Small
Record with input gain louder to have a better level of waveform or if you just want to see it use the Command+Option+] key combination to adjust the waveform's size view.

When you record, have your meters in Pre-fade and adjust GAIN so the meters hit into the yellow.

Re: Waveform too Small
And albee means gain at the source, not the faders within Pro Tools as they only control the monitor level when recording.
Cheers,

Re: Waveform too Small
alan, upper left of your edit window there is a way to make the midi notes and the audio waveforms larger or smaller ... up near the grid, slip, shuffle, spot mode buttons ...
it is very disconcerting that more people do not know the simplest things in PT ... the manual is your friend ... buy your friend a beer and crack that puppy open ... you will not regret it ... the other folks have covered how to get your input gain up ... all good advise cheers john

Re: Waveform too Small
Yes yes, which is why I keep my meters showing Pre-Fader levels. I want to record at proper levels, while I mix with my ears (not meters). The only time I will select Post-Fader is to balance a bunch of similar tracks, like BGV's or a string section.

In the menu bar right to the right of the grid relative grid slip mode function buttons
There are two grey buttons that have up and down arrows below them one shows an audio waveform the other shows midi notes Click the one that shows the audio waveform up and you will see all the audio waveforms on your screen considering you're in edit screen all of those will make the waveforms bigger
