Recording Bass In Logic Express, LE Audio problems Options

[v802]

Hi,

Hope you can help a Logic Express virgin out here. Trying to record my bass guitar on Logic Express 7.1 via an M-Audio 410 firewire interface (FW410). I can see an input and output signal going through the 410 but nothing is reaching Logic Express. When I look on the computers system preferences>sound I can see the signal coming in from the bass via what looks like a volume meter. Looking at the Audio Midi Setup page the default input is FW410, default output is built in audio, system output is FW410, clock source is internal, audio input is line in and audio out is line out (phew !). In LE7.1 preferences the driver is FW410.

When I record a loop, playback is fine. The problem seems to be laying down an audio track - cannot hear bass through speakers and no signal is reaching LE7.1

What protocol do YOU use when laying down an audio track ?

Mucho gnashing of teeth here !

Hope some one can help

Have you created an appropiate audio object for the audio track you're trying to record on in the environment?
