Is there anyway you can highlight a track without using the mouse?

i.e. can I use arrow keys left and right to highlight a track and R to record.

Furthermore, can you record enable the selected track from a keyboard or midi control? Allegedly my m-audio keyboard is meant to be able to arm record ...

You're both going on specs alone. Neither of you have sat down with both products and compared them 1 for 1. Therefore I conclude that you're blowing smoke out of your arses.

:lol:

I'm neither for nor against dell or Mac. But I do like to make my own mind up on such matters. My budget made my ...

I think you have to look at it this way.. If Sony released a VAIO machine with the same quality as a macbook pro everyone would be going nuts. Everyone would say get it if you can afford it.

4. Automatically collapse/restore mixer channels so that you can fit more on screen in the mixer section. (i.e. even though you can make a ...

to see a large arrangement properly.

Why not do what Logic does and have the waveform part of the clip in white? Or like Pro Tools where ...

Everytime I record vocals with my Mbox in Live 4, the vocal is slightly delayed on playback. I understand that the mbox delays things by 164 samples but Pro Tools le compensates for that in the program itself.

In Logic you can shift back audio by samples to get things to line up but how do you do ...
