ok, just remember... i have zero background in radio or any other area regarding audio... just vo. I know this is a stupid question...

for my high school reunion, the committee thought it would be cute to do a vo narration, paired with music in various places. i've done the vo in one (mono) track) and the music is in a second track (stereo) below it. I've "consolidated" them, but they still appear on separate tracks. Then, I bounced to mp3... and they're still on separate tracks/mp3s. How do I make this all one mp3 so I can send it to the committee??

thank you very much in advance.

Caryn,

I don't have Pro Tools, I use GoldWave. Could your problem be trying to consolidate a mono track and a stereo track? In GoldWave I've mixed vocals and music, but they were both mono... with no problem.

Sounds good, DB.

Now maybe you can tell me how to get the pre-roll off my audition session. Somehow I added a 4 second pre-roll pause before the recording starts and I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how to remove it. I know I can start a new session from scratch....but it became a challenge after I couldn't figure it out. And the "help button" in the menu doesn't seem to bring anything up.

Any ideas? The pre-roll in the transport shows 0:00:00. But the record/play buttons still flash 4 times/ 4 seconds before recording starts.

I know it is probably a super easy fix...but I haven't figured it out yet.

Expand your transport window.
You should be able to reset/delete the pre roll time from there.

DB, I had deleted the time in there awhile back. It shows zeros. I am stumped. I am gonna start a new session. I have tried everything.

Ben,

Have you tried actually typing zeros in there instead of deleting the time? I'm not positive, but it might make a difference.
