Default Not a Valid Audio Volume??

I recently purchased a Powerbook G4, 1.67ghz processor, 1gig RAM (soon to be 2), and I made sure that it had a 7200 RPM drive in it so I could use it for doing mobile recording of smaller projects. It does not allow me to start a new session, and when I try to change it to an audio record volume in the Workspace, it gives me the error : "Macintosh HD" cannot be designated as an Audio Record volume because it is not a valid audio volume. I have a couple external firewire drives I could use, but I wanted to be able to use this internal one as well for smaller projects. How do I make it an audio record volume??

Dropdown menu named window->workspace. Make sure the letter in the A(udio) column is set to R for record. You should use an external drive. I hope this helps, although I am sure this question has been answered many times before and could have been found with a little searching.

Um, yeah...I already said I tried that in my original post & it won't let me. That's when it gives me the error message...

Read the 4th thread from the top of the forum, called "Audio Record or Playback Volume Error Info"

Thanks for pointing me to the right thread, the version of PT7 on my Powerbook came from a Firewire transfer from my PowerMac G5. I Uninstalled PT7, repaired permissions, re-installed it, repaired permissions again, and it defaulted to a record drive. Thanks again!

Hi,

I'm having the same issue, but the '4th thread from the top of the forum, called "Audio Record or Playback Volume Error Info" ' is no longer there...

Do you have a URL for the post that corrected this for him?

Thnaks.

Wow.

It's the 5th one from the top right now. It might even be the 6th by the time you read this.

Yup, since the "7.1.1 for Intel Macs" thread appeared a few days ago, it's now the 5th from the top....
