Well...if I understand the question you're asking about "track assignment" and not time stamping. If there is a code "fork" that allows a DAW to recognize what track your bass guitar WAS on (bass WAS on track 10 and remains so in Pro Tools) it would have to be written into the files exported...

Well....yes I think it's most likely an "export" setting from the Alesis software. It "appears" that the Alesis software consolidates audio upon export. In the case of a hard disk recorder like the Alesis I suspect it creates files with the same "starting" point so they can be imported time...

I see. Well I read a bit about the Alesis Fireport. That's a pretty complex proprietary little system they've got going there. I find it interesting but I can't find enough info to explain just how the Fireport "wraps" the audio files for export and recognition by other DAWs. Obviously you have...

Yikes..still very confusing :) Are you saying you have a Sonar session that your exporting raw audio tracks to the desktop of another computer?? Then importing those raw files into a new Pro Tools session??

Kinda of confusing explanation. I get tangled when you say "I fireport a tune into it,transfer audio in new session." Perhaps clarify??

Ok no worries. Let's try this. When you arm your midi/Instrument track for record and pluck at the keyboard do you see midi information climbing the midi/Instrument track?? The LED latter will be up near the top of the track next to the tiny midi icon. Another thought. Midi routing (especially...

By the way...now that I look again at your session you've got another thing tangles we should fix. There are two ways to run midi/softsynths in Pro Tools. One is with an singular Instrument track. An Instrument track is both an Aux track AND a midi track combined. For a singular tambral device...

I don't see the Instrument Track I/O section. Under your Pro Tools view menu you need to select ..View pull down...Mix View and select Instrument Track. That will reveal you I/O structure of that now STEREO Instrument Track Another thing I notice is you probably want to select send and receive...

Configure your midi as if you had both an in and an out (Even if you don't currently have a return midi cable.) To save confusion "name" your midi setup. For me it's named "Roland Fantom" The reason for NAMING your setup is so you can be sure your choosing the correct midi i/o when you...

In a Pro Tools session under the "setup" pull down menu there is a "midi" configure select. Have you gone there and created a Windows midi setup?? It's a simple setup but I'd definitely "export" a copy of your midi setup to a safe easily accessed place. Secondarily..I don't know what keyboard...

Really. All those attempts to help you with a problem. The last thing I need is to be called something disparagingly. Fuck that...that'll for sure be my last attempt.

Okay Steve :) If you'd like my help you can always PM me and I'll make myself available to get your problem straighten out. --Joseph

Yes indeed almost all of what you have here is correct! The only point I disagree with here is your last assessment of D-Verb some how being inferior because you have to add delay and chorus. THE BEST of THE BEST (let's use the 960 as an example) use this as part of their standard presets...

I believe ya Steve :) You don't need to convince me there is a problem with D-Verb and your system. What I try to discourage is knee-jerk reaction to software problems that can only lead one down the worst possible route to a solution. There is nothing fundamentally flawed with D-Verb. There...

I don't follow the logic :) There are MILLIONS, maybe more, sessions running happily out there with D-Verb. Let's not confuse a tried and true plug-in with a system that not set up properly. Something "fucking blows" in this situation but it not an ill-conceived piece of software

I respectfully disagree All reverb, be it the Lexicon 960 or your local cathedral, is delay. This is NOT reserved for cheap reverbs. The old web fueled forum based test about acutely listening to solo'd reverb tracks and basing the general worth of the unit on how it's tails decay is as FAR...

I tried to bite my tongue and move on from this but.....that's a BOLD statement and I can't put into words how much I disagree with this. Sonically. Why is D-Verb a piece of crap??

Go to your applications drive. Open applications folder. Look for a "Utilities Folder" Go to Disk Utilities. Highlight the drive to be formatted in the left hand side of the page. I think for this situation select "Partition". For the type select Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

Properly format your drive. It is vital you do so AND once formatted it will allow you to select the "record" value for the drive.
