Count Off?

2012-08-06 Thread Abdul D Kamara
Hello All, Another simple question for those who can answer... I would like a count off from the time I hit record to the time when PT actually begins recording, without having sustained clicking throughout the recording period. Can I assume that this is achieved by setting up a click track?

Hi Chris, Can I assume that you are running PT 9.0.5, and that you have run the driver installation of your interface? If you have not done the latter, start there, then in Pro Tools' Setup and Playback engine, try to select again. - Abdul On 30 Sep 2011, at 03:44, Christopher-Mark Gilland

Hi all, I'm trying to get audio from the regions list, on to a track. It appears that simply copying and pasting is not an option, and that instead, I would need to drag and drop-- at least, I'm told that this is how the sighted folks do it. Is this correct? If so, what is the work around?
