Pro Tools Help.. (should be pretty easy)

[360_541]

decided to dig up my mbox and mess with it . ive had it for a few years and never really gotten into it.

ok, so im runnin this :

pro tools 6.7 le for windows. ( cuz it wont run on my mac)


Its only recording in the left channel... ive been lookin on google for an hour and cant find anything on it.

its probably something really simple. but im not findin it.

if anyone knows how to get both channels to record that would be apprieciated.

thanks.

You recording from a mic? If so then you need to make the track mono instead of stereo.

im runnin a condensor into the mbox.. mbox is usb to my pc.

 

[DJ Coma]

Well ya like I said make the track you're recording to in Pro Tools a mono track instead of a stereo track.

Yea like Coma said, new audio track, then mono.

I had this problem too i think it might be normal and you have to pan out the vocals

 

[Defy]

you need to put it on mono on both the Mbox & the track. create new mono track in pro tools and find the button on the mbox that has stereo/mono switching. (should be on the front of the mbox)

when i was creating a new track.. it kept putting it on stereo.

Has anybody tried the 7.4 version on a Vista CPU Yet??
If So, Any Troubles Installing It Or Is Just My CPU??

As far as I know, Pro Tools 7.4 works on Vista.

However, it only supports Xp/Vista's of 32 BIT! So if you have a 64 BIT OS, XP or Vista, it will not run.

If your running 32 BIT Vista, you shouldn't be having any problems as far as I am concerned.

However, to be honest, you should install XP Home on your computer. It's more compatible. I don't see Vista becoming appealing anytime soon as far as Home Studio's go.

And stay away from 64 BIT.

From the Manufacturer website: Pro Tools LE 7.4

Not Supported:

# Windows Vista 64-bit (any version)
# Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
# Windows XP Media Center Edition
# Windows 98, Me, 2000, NT, 95, 3.1, DOS
