Help needed using Pro Tools

ungratefuldead

Hi guys,

I just bought Mbox2 factory with protools.

I install it and read the basic (is the first time that I use recording software) and I was capable to record my guitar and bass without any big problem.

After I decided to record drums using a plug in called BFD LITE I can open the plug in, set the drums but I cannot record it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can someone tell me how to do it (EX file>new track......)?

There are any special settings? There is a different plug in included in protools for record the drums? I did not install yet the factory bundle there is anything in there useful?


I know that are stupid questions but you had to understand I got the tolls only from two days and is quite hard to use it.

Thanks guys


Any info is more than welcome

you need to create a stereo audio track and then insert the plug in as an aux i/p on that track. So hit "Control & +" to see the channel view and here you can set your aux in.
That cool or was there more you wanted to know?

Pro Tools should be used in conjunton with a seperate program to run your midi sequences and samples. I highly recommend Reason. You can't beat it for all your sequencing needs.
