Beat 1 Of Click Inaudible In Record Mode

Post by bigcityrecording »

When I am tracking with click and simultaneously recording the click to its own track, oftentimes the first beat is not heard. It doesn't happen every time, so when starting a new take, if I don't hear it, I start recording again and it may or may not be heard. However, on playback, the first beat shows it was recorded.

This is annoying because if I'm tracking a band AND simultaneously recording a click, when they don't hear the first click, the band is off by a beat.

Has anyone encountered this problem? Any fixes?

Thanks!

I think I’ve seen that when the sequence begins on the first beat. For a number of reason, I always start the sequence at bar 0 and the recordings at bar 1.
