Recording multiple tracks (one at a time) problem -ACID Product Family

Subject:Recording multiple tracks (one at a time) problem Posted by: fivestring45 Date:11/15/2007 6:26:41 PM K....so I've ran inot an issue with Acid Music Studio. This is what happens. I record the first track and everything works fine I record the 2nd track and when I mute the first track to hear what I've recorded only on track 2, I get track 1 bleed over. In other words, both tracks are recorded on the second track. What gives?

Your problem sounds like your audio hardware is sending what is being played back to the input. This is sometimes called the What you hear mode on some audio hardware.

Subject:RE: Recording multiple tracks (one at a time) problem Reply by: pwppch Date:1/25/2008 8:30:15 AM Your system specs are not in your user profile. What audio hardware are you using? Are you using ASIO drivers, Wave Classic, or the Mapper driver mode of ACID? Did you read the link to "what you hear"? The problem is that you are recording what is being output. Many motherboard audio solutions and consumer audio cards route the output back to the input of the sound hardware. When you record you are getting the input connected to the hardware and what ever is being played back. Peter

I just plug my guitar directly into the 1/8" microphone input on the front of my computer. So exactly what hardware am I using? Can you tell me?

Go to Start -> Settings -> Control panel -> Sounds and audio devices. That will show you what brand/model it is. In any case though, the information about "what you hear" should cover everything you need to know to solve your problem.
