Auto Record in Apple Logic Pro

Hi this is Bill Macpherson for Expert Village okay in this clip we're going to talk about how to properly setup an audio track to record an audio signal. Now you want to create a new track and we're going to choose audio track1 and name that track we're going to name it guitar cause we're going to lay down a guitar track. Now one of the first things you want to do is setup your audio record path so go under audio, set audio record path, now in this window there's a few things you want to set the maximum recording time, you really want to use this because it'll put a lot less stress on your computer if you set this to a low number I set it to around 7. Now to set where your audio files will go when you record them just click the set button, and a good place to set the audio files that you'll be creating in the same folder that you saved your song in. Click set and then okay, the next thing you want to set is your input we have a guitar already set input 1 and if you go down to your channel strip you see this one here says input 1-2 that's cause right now it's set as a stereo track. Go all the way to the bottom and just click there it'll change to a mono track now you can see it says input 1. If we click and hold there you see all the inputs that I have of course my guitar is in input 1 so we'll choose input 1, now to be able to hear the guitar that your going to be recording you want to turn on software monitoring. So you want to go under audio, audio hardware and drivers, and down in here you'll find software monitoring, just turn that on now when you click the record button you'll be able to hear your guitar. And that's how you properly setup and audio track to record audio.
