Subject:Clip selection not working properly? ACID6-b

Ok when I recorded a piece of audio in the past, with a loop selection over a place in time, I remember that every time it looped it would make a new clip that I could select from and use the best take...

For some reason when I record now it doesnt make new clips it just continues along recording everything I play in one wav file. When I try to select other clips (it shows clips are there), but they are all the same clip...

I'm not sure if I'm doing something incorrectly now, or if some setting changed that I'm unaware of... I reset everything to defaults and it still occurs...

Yes, it's a bit confusing innit?

Set the "ACID type for recorded audio" to "beatmapped" instead of "one-shot".

Like H2000 mentioned, Beatmapped files should be used if you plan on doing recordings with loop playback enabled.

If you set everything to the default, then Beatmapped should be the file type used for recordings. (If not, check under Options > Preferences > Audio.)

I'm guessing this is one of those mysteries that may never be answered as to why it works properly with the preference set to Beatmapped vs. One-Shot? Isn't a One-shot media file the same as the Beatmapped media file without the additional Acid beatmapped information added?

Ahhh yes!
That fixed the issue, somehow my default acid type got set to one shot, switched it back to beat mapped and it was back to normal...

I pressed the main preferences window defaults button thinking it would reset EVERYTHING to default, guess thats not the case.

Thanks for the help guys!

I'm just wondering if this is even on list of things to be fixed in Acid? Anyone from Sony have any comments? Maybe, I shouldn't ask.....they might decide to fix it by elliminating the one-shot recording preference.

We are looking at solutions. Whether something will happen for ACID 6 update has not been determined.
