I downloaded Audacy and watched a couple of basic tutorials. I learned that you have to aline any additional tracks with the first. I have never had to deal with ALINING in any other recording software. Is there a setting in Audacy that automatically alines the tracks. I am doing head arrangements of original songs involving no more than 3 or 4 tracks.
I have a home recording studio using Sonar X2 software.
All recording programs are basically the same. Some just have more options than others.
When recording, to align additional recording tracks I just start at the beginning. That automatically aligns the tracks. For example if I have a Vocal track on track 1 and a guitar accompanyment track 2 and then later go back and add a bass track on track 3, I just start the bass track at the beginning and its automatically aligned.
As a side note, I'm currently doing a CD project for a semi-retired Nashville songwriter. All the songs are originals that he has written. The initial recordings are a voice track, drum track (I use an Alesis SR16 drum machine) and rhythm guitar track. I'm adding the other parts, bass, lead guitar, pedal steel guitar and MIDI keyboard.
Thank you Fireberd for getting back so quickly.
