Recording/Playback

Post by dnuke25 » Thu Sep 18, 2008 4:01 pm

Hey all,

Quick question I can't seem to figure out the answer too. I did some recording of piano tracks to a click track so tempo was locked. However, after I've finished recording, the playback goes off the tempo. I was recording 44k sample rate on Live's end and that automatically made my firewire interface 44k as well. Any idea as to how this is happening?

Thanks!

Make sure you turn Warp off.

It could be due to the latency of your recording. That while although you recorded to the click, the input actually recorded slightly behind it.

If this is the case (maybe i'm misinterpreting your problem), just drag the start of the clip over to the start of your tracks Wave (ie the first note you played).

Another tip is that when you are recording into a clip in session view, use the session fire button to stop recording, NOT the global stop.

This will stop the recording in time so you get a perfect loop.
