Resampling of midi track as audio? How?

Post by beardedone » Wed Jun 01, 2005 4:54 pm

I have read the manual and the routing tutorial but still cannot render a midi VSTi track as an audio clip. Could someone please describe more clearly how this is done.

Thanks,
Gordon

Alright. I decided to try this now instead of waiting untlil tonight as it is driving nuts.

1) VSTi Midi track 5 audio to set to audio 1
2) Audio track 1 is set to Audio from Midi track 5
3) Audio track 1 is armed to rceord.
4) Midi track 5 play activated.

Results are that the levels in Audio 1 are lit up but no audio clip is created.

Audio 1 is armed and is receiving input. So, why is no audio clip created?

I hope someone can straighten me out.

once you record enable a track (midi or audio) the empty clip stop buttons become little record circle buttons.

when you are ready you hit record (the little circle on any empty clip)

when you are done recording you simply click the play icon on the new clip you are recording to.

OK I was missing something important. Thanks o much! :D :D See I never record into Live before so I was not familiar with this point. Let me have try and see if I got it now.

So I hit the empty clip audio button and voila it worked!

What a relief!

Thanks again!

You saved my sanity today!

Cheers,
