Ok. When I record on to the internal drive on the mac book pro, it works fine. I guess I can't record to an external drive? If not, I will have to clear this internal drive out. I will keep playing with stuff. If anyone knows what I can do about the external drive, that would help. I would like

Hmm, the throughput on USB drives is a bit naff, but I wouldn't have expected it to lock up that badly if you're just trying to put one track down. It'd be worth unplugging all but the absolute necessary USB peripherals if you have more of them, could be that the bus just isn't fast enough to handl

Oh yes, you should definitely not record to a USB drive, you should either get a firewire drive, install another drive into your Mac if possible (not possible if you have a MacBook Pro or Mini), or as a last option record to your internal drive. Still, you should also exclude that drive or folde

Ok, new problem. I can arm a track and all from the control surface and I can record midi just find. When I do the same thing and try to record audio, I can't get it to stop for a while, and pro tools stops responding and goes in to busy mode for about 30 seconds or so. What should I set my aud

Never mind, it just started working. lol. Sorry about that. After locking like twice, I power cycled the project mix and after doing that twice, it just started working. Guess there was a glitch some ware. All fixed now though. GF

I got a bit of help from Kevin Reeves today and he helped me setup my project mix to work with pt. Under the peripherals menu, I set the first choice to Huey, then the next 2 to project mix control. Is this correct? Now when I run pt, my system locks up and I have to restart. It wasn't doing thi
