Subject:Acid Pro 7: Recording vocals Posted by: Akali47 Date:3/24/2013 7:48:50 PM Hi, I;m trying to record vocals in Acid &. However, I'm having the vocalist wear headphones to hear the track (monitor). When the vocal recording starts the vocals can be heard through the headphones along with the audio track. Is there a way to 'turn-off' the vocals, so they are not heard through the headphones, while recording? I (vocalist) only wants to be able to hear the audio track though the vocalists headphones...while recording. In other studios I've worked in, only the audio track is heard (vocalist headphones). Please advise.... this is very frustrating! Thank you!

Hi,
I;m trying to record vocals in Acid &. However, I'm having the vocalist wear headphones to hear the track (monitor). When the vocal recording starts the vocals can be heard through the headphones along with the audio track.

Is there a way to 'turn-off' the vocals, so they are not heard through the headphones, while recording? I (vocalist) only wants to be able to hear the audio track though the vocalists headphones...while recording.

In other studios I've worked in, only the audio track is heard (vocalist headphones).

Please advise.... this is very frustrating!

Thank you!

What audio device are you using for input and out on you computer?

What is the make and model of the mixer you are using?
