Hi Mike,Isn't the whole idea of the list to help answer questions? I've just listened to Sheila's recording, it's beautifully arranged, maybe Sheila is foremost a Writer and arranger, maybe Sheila's not quite up to speed with all the wirering and routing involved in sound engineering.

I don't understand why you don't acknowledge any sensible ideas, like, for instance, my suggestions about the routing of the input signal going thru your Mackie, & checking to see if there's an actual physical switch to enable the selection of your mike's input source?These aren't merely quote suggestions unquote, but seriously logical ideas...I mean, you're trying to record stuff, do you actually know any of the fundamentals 'bout audio recording?I hope this doesn't sound too harsh, but, man, this is page 1 of the basics ...----- Original Message ----- From: "Sheila Styron" <sheilastyron@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, August 07, 2011 6:41 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Voice not recording on audio trackThanks 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 tryingto 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] OnBehalf 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 tomike input, if the mixer has buss buttons adjacent to the faders, maybe oneof 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. Cananyone tell me what I'm missing? thanks in advance for any suggestions youmay have.
