Thanks for all your suggestions, everyone. Couldn't get the mic to work with the mixing board, so I got the level up in the Motif and used that instead. I have rough vocals and a rough mix now and will sleep on it before trying to do more with it. Here's a link if anyone wants to give it a listen and offer suggestions. It's very schmaltzy, was asked to write it for a high school reunion. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27095149/The%20Class%20of%2071.mp3 Sheila Styron 816-896-6552 sheilastyron@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mike Christer Sent: Saturday, August 06, 2011 3:39 PM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Voice not recording on audio track Apart from the Mackie not having the relevant channels' input selected to mike input, if the mixer has buss buttons adjacent to the faders, maybe one of these hasn't been selected/de-selected? l8r ----- Original Message ----- From: Sheila Styron <mailto:sheilastyron@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ; MoAccess@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 06, 2011 4:17 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Voice not recording on audio track I'm working with the Motif and Sonar and have a mic just going in to an old Mackie mixing board which usually is fine. I've created an audio track and it is armed and not muted. The mic sounds live enough in my ear phones, and Motif sounds will record on to this track. However, the vocal isnt going there isn't recording as far as I can tell, no peak level. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.
