Eleven Rack & Pro Tools8
Record Some Guitar
To record your guitar with Eleven Rack:
1 Go back to the Pro Tools Mix window.
2 Strum your guitar, and watch the meter in the Pro Tools track to see if you need to adjust the Rig
volume by using the Rig Volume tab. (Don’t move the on-screen fader to try and adjust input level
because it isn’t going to have any effect; the on-screen fader is only for setting your listening level.)
3 Click on the Up Arrow key until the on-screen track meter shows green most of the time, or yellow
for your louder passages (the Rig Volume tab lets you set and control the overall Rig volume).
If the track meter shows red, gain is too high; lower the Rig volume (Down Arrow key).
If you barely see green in the track meter, Rig volume is too low.
4 In the toolbar (or in the Transport window) click the Return to Zero button to jump back to the start
of the session, then click the Record button. This tells Pro Tools that you’re happy with your levels and
are ready to record (think of the Transport Record button as a “master” record enable button).
5 Choose Window > Edit so you can watch what happens when you record.
